Jill Urban came out to the Island last week to take a tour and hear about the devel­op­ment of the Island. Even when the Island is closed to the pub­lic, there is a great deal of con­struc­tion and activ­i­ty hap­pen­ing here. She got to peek inside Build­ing 110, which is cur­rent­ly under­go­ing con­struc­tion for the Low­er Man­hat­tan Cul­tur­al Coun­cil’s artist stu­dio pro­gram that will open at the end of the year. She also high­light­ed Water Taxi Beach and the Urban Assem­bly New York Har­bor School. The school will open to pub­lic high school stu­dents in 2010. 
Building 110 is the future site of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Artist Studios Program
