The Local East Village Explains the NYU Expansion Plan

The Local East Village is a newspaper collaboration between the New York Times and the NYU Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute.  On March 27th, The Local launched the "Expansion Explainer" to examine the impacts of the project and thus far has written about the WSV parking garage,  the three at-risk playgrounds (Mercer, Key Park, and Rocket Ship) [what of the decrepit playground adjacent to the Coles Gym?], and the Mercer-Houston dog run.  Follow the "Expansion Explainer" at http://eastvillage.thelocal.nytimes.com/tag/expansion-explainer/.
