#### Architectural innovation and progressive political movements share the stage at this historic college in the heart of the Lower East Side.

The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art has a history as distinguished as its name. Eccentric inventor, industrialist and philanthropist Peter Cooper founded the school in 1859 as a model of equity and innovation in education. Tuition was free, and qualified women and students of color could readily enroll. Today, see the legacy of that vision living on at Cooper Square, where creative young people gather to pursue art, architecture and engineering.

Sit outside to absorb the atmosphere of Cooper Square on a sunny day. Gaze upward to appreciate the architectural history of the school buildings. The Foundation Building, overlooking Cooper Square, is a stunning example of mid 19th-century Italianate brownstone architecture. Notice a cylinder sticking out of the roof on the western side this was the world’s first elevator shaft. Although the elevator had yet to be invented when the school opened, Cooper was convinced it would happen soon.

The school exemplifies modern-day innovation too. Observe the distorted-cube form across the plaza this campus building boasted state-of-the-art “green” design features when it opened in 2009.

The Cooper Union’s innovations weren’t limited to architecture. Enter the Foundation Building and descend into the basement to the 900-seat Great Hall, the largest secular meeting space in New York City at the time of the college’s founding.

Cooper Union hosted several famous progressive leaders. Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass and Susan B. Anthony all gave addresses here. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), a leading civil rights organization, held its first public meeting in the Great Hall in 1909\. Read about this history in the small informational exhibit outside the entrance to the Great Hall. Immerse yourself in the experience by attending one of the public programs frequently hosted in the hall today.

Reach the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art via subway, arriving at 8th Street or Astor Place. The Foundation Building is not generally open for public touring, but free and low-cost public programs and exhibitions may provide access. Check the university website for more information about specific events.

Booked two rooms. One room had no issues, and the kids were happy with their space. Unfortunately, the other room had a heating problem during a NYC deep freeze. The first night, the temperature was around 63°F. I contacted the front desk the next day, and they promptly sent a very polite and professional technician. The heat improved, though it didn’t fully reach a comfortable level; the second night it maxed out at 66°F. During checkout, Carolyn handled the situation with genuine care and professionalism. She took the time to listen and made sure I felt satisfied with how the issue was addressed. Thank you, Carolyn.

We booked three rooms for our group for an overnight stay due to a fight cancellation. We were so impressed with the hotel location the facility considering the price is so affordable. The staff was really courageous, letting us store our luggage prior to checking in time and also help us with directions to the local area. We will definitely stay here again when we visit New York.
