Mayor Bloomberg has been "blown away" by the interest in the city's call to build a major tech campus and mentioned the possibility of selecting more than one winner.
Stanford submitted its bid to build a $2.5 billion, 1.9-million-square-foot eco-friendly engineering and applied science campus on Roosevelt Island Wednesday, responding to the city's call for proposals.
Cornell University, eyeing Roosevelt Island for a new engineering campus, announced it is partnering with the Technion Israel Institute of Technology in its bid.
