Public Safety Advisory | UPDATE II Lincoln Center Reopening

0

UPDATE II Monday, January 13, 2020 | 2:30 p.m.

The Lincoln Center campus will reopen for evening classes at 5 p.m. today following a water main break and street flooding at Broadway and 62nd Street in Manhattan. Ram Van service to Lincoln Center will resume at 4 p.m. We anticipate the Lincoln Center campus opening on its normal schedule on Tuesday, January 14.

The decision to reopen is based upon consultation with New York City Emergency Management regarding the resumption of water service to campus via the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, and the resumption of steam heat to several buildings either via ConEd or emergency boilers. Temperatures may be cooler, though still safe, in certain buildings (likely Lowenstein Center, 140 West 62nd Street, and Martino Hall) while steam service is being restored. Students, faculty, and staff are advised to bring an extra layer of clothing to campus this evening and tomorrow.

The Quinn Library will reopen this evening as a study space only; the Law Library will be open and fully staffed.

As always, members of the University community should take local conditions into account when traveling to or from campus. Faculty, students and staff should call any of the following numbers for the latest campus travel-related information:

(718) 817-5555
(212) 636-7777
(800) 280-7669 [(800) 280-SNOW]
(877) 375-4357 [(877) 375-HELP]
