What kinds of businesses will be in Manhattanville? Will Fairway be affected?
There will be locally owned stores, restaurants, and other community amenities in the ground floors of buildings along West 125th Street, Broadway, and Twelfth Avenue. In renting out these spaces, the University will maintain its long-standing policy of favoring local entrepreneurs serving local consumer needs. Fairway Market is not within the project area and will not be relocated because of Columbia’s long-term campus plan. Additionally, we are committed to supporting and building on the historical and economically important arts and culture aspects of Harlem.
