Yesterday afternoon, Ithaca City Attorney Dan Hoffman read a draft of a letter to the Board of Public Works setting forth his position that the College of Architecture, Art and Planning could build its new Milstein Hall over University Avenue. While the final decision has yet to be made about Milstein, the new design, which uses a cantilever to hoist the building up over the street rather than columns fulfills the letter of the law, according to Hoffman.
