New York University is the latest recipient of the largesse of Connie Milstein and her philanthropic activities.  Ms. Milstein is embarking on a $10 million project to expand the NYU campus to Washington D.C. by building an extension there.

The 12-story building will be the 12th additional campus for NYU which houses their extensive study-abroad program. The Washington campus will join the other satellite campuses which are located in internationally important cities such as London, Shanghai, and Tel Aviv. The Washington, D.C. program will be offering a one semester study-abroad program in journalism, political science and American history. Internships will also be offered in various government offices and non-governmental organizations.

The new building will be located on  northwest L Street, just a few blocks from the White House. Ground-breaking for the new structure is scheduled to commence in September, 2010.
