Located in the West Village, and bound by West 10th Street, Washington Street, and Greenwich Street, a new proposed expansion for the Village Community School is currently being reviewed by the Landmarks Preservation Commission.

6:30 am on August 20, 2018 By Andrew Nelson

Permits have been filed for a seven-story mixed-use development at 38 West 8th Street, one block away from Washington Square Park.

Despite this, the odds are high this project will attract undeserved criticism from local rent-gouging homeowners fearful of any increase in neighborhood housing supply. Joseph Straus of the Straus Group is listed as responsible for the development.
