Future
According to the Proposed Manhattanville Academic Mixed-Use Environmental Impact Statement, Columbia intends to expand, as-of-right, its presence in Manhattanville by adaptively reusing Prentis Hall for the School of the Arts. Columbia currently owns and occupies Prentis Hall, 628–644 West 125th Street, with approximately 91,000 gross square feet (gsf) of academic space. By the 2015 analysis year, Prentis Hall may be enlarged to include an additional floor of approximately 17,000 gsf of additional academic space.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“Perfect present has no existence in our consciousness. As I said years ago in Erewhon, it lives but upon the sufferance of past and future. We are like men standing on a narrow footbridge over a railway. We can watch the future hurrying like an express train towards us, and then hurrying into the past, but in the narrow strip of present we cannot see it. Strange that that which is the most essential to our consciousness should be exactly that of which we are least definitely conscious.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
“You have too much of a life yet before you, and have shown too much of promise as an officer, for your future to be lightly surrendered.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.... Because myth anchors the present in the past it is a sociological charter for a future society which is an exact replica of the present one.”
—Ann Oakley (b. 1944)
