NYU College To Accommodate Housing For Jewish Students

NYU College housing officials will work to house observant Jewish students closer to the Bronfman Center for Jewish Student Life in the upcoming spring, to accommodate their weekly trips to Shabbas services.
NYU housing options like Water Street and 26th Street residence halls are prohibitively far away from the Bronfman Center for Jewish Life, which is located on 10th Street between University Place and Fifth Avenue, as students must walk to and from the locations to attend Kosher meals and synagogue.
“We’re not looking for better housing, just closer housing,” he said.
