SAVE THE WANG CENTER NEWS
SBU Imperial President Is Also Delusional! Stanley Tells Student Media That 6-Story Dorms Will Have "Almost No Effect"! We defy Stanley to stand in front of the shortest of the 6 Wang AAC light towers on the far right in the drawing below, holding that KSQ drawing he claims is accurate, and publicly say it is correct even though it shows the 3-story light tower as the same height as the proposed 6-story Toll Drive dorms! Another KSQ drawing falsely minimizes the dorms impact on the garden by making them look 4 stories. So why should anyone believe any KSQ drawings that show these 'dwarf' dorms not effecting the iconic pagoda tower atop Wang? If Stanley were honest, he would have an impartial 3rd party architect, one all could agree on, make accurate drawings. What is Stanley afraid of? The truth? Update: We came up with the perfect architect to provide correct drawings - the world famous John Belle of Beyer, Blinder and Belle! He won the nation's highest honor for an architect, the Presidential Design Award, for the renovations of Grand Central Station and Ellis Island, and he also designed SBU's Academic Mall. Everyone respects Belle! Click on photos above or below to enlarge STANLEY STILL LYING, STILL NOT RESPONDING Stanley's Scorecard: Trees 1, Asians 0 Is this what "almost no effect" means to Stanley: Will sitting in the serene Suzhou style scholar's garden and looking up at trees and sky be the same as looking at brick walls towering overhead, listening to a cacophony of music blaring? Never again being able to open the theatre curtain to reveal the Japanese Noh-style effect of the outside being one with the inside through the two 8-sided windows? Will driving onto campus or looking down from the Academic Mall and seeing the iconic pagoda tower, now alone against the blue sky, be the same when its bottom half is backed by brick walls, at night the dorm lights switching on and off? All we ask is that Stanley give logical reasons why the Asian campus community does not matter to him. Why he is willing to the destroy the beauty of the $55 million gift celebrating Asian heritage when there is lots of room for dorms elsewhere. (With room for new parking too!) Why he does not have the common courtesy to respond to students, alumni, faculty, staff, and members of the community who have asked him why. Does he truly believe the two-minute walk closer to the Academic Mall between Toll Drive dorms and LaValle Stadium dorms is worth screwing up the Wang AAC? Please tell us Sam. Please justify what you are doing. Tennis Courts 1, Asians 0 Since the high temp steam pipes needed to build any large building on campus are already in place by the tennis courts on the other side of the same parking lot , why can't there be stadium dorms there like the popular ones at UT Austin and the tennis courts moved. The tennis court space was originally offered to Charles Wang so if it was good enough for the Wang AAC then, why isn't it good enough for dorms now?
Drawing above, also by KSQ but prior to when any objections were raised about the effect on Wang, more accurately shows the new dorms towering over the Wang Center.
