New York City may be the largest "college town" in the world, with some of the world's best higher educational facilities across Manhattan and the other boroughs. A number of notable college and universities are right near StuyTown and Peter Cooper Village. Whether you're headed straight from high school to college, returning to school after a stint in the workforce, or attending part-time, your educational options are wide.
41 Cooper Square has a strikingly unique stainless-steel curtain façade and appropriately houses Cooper Union's Engineering School.
