Thoughts? – http://nypost.com/2015/10/17/is-this-mark-zuckerberg-funded-school-the-future-of-education/ I noticed the signage for this around the corner from my place in Brooklyn heights a few months ago but hadn?t heard anything about it until I came across this article. The location seems really small considering they?ve taken $100m in funding from Zuckerberg etc (its above the Heights Café on Montague st).
