Columbia University has abruptly severed ties with a $96 million regeneration fund for Manhattanville, a historic neighborhood in Upper Manhattan. The decision comes after decades of alleged mismanagement by a nonprofit organization tasked with overseeing the project. The fund, established to revitalize the area, has been plagued by financial missteps, bureaucratic red tape, and a lack of transparency. As a result, the university has opted to take control of the project, raising questions about the future of the Manhattanville regeneration and the accountability of those involved in its management.
