-'''Charles H. Revson Plaza''' is the official name for the bridge that links the main [[Morningside Heights campus]] to the area across [[Amsterdam Avenue]] containing the [[law school]], [[SIPA]], and [[East Campus]]. It contains a little grassy area and some sculptures, including ''[[Life Force]]'', ''[[Tight Rope Walker]]'', and ''[[Three-Way Piece: Points]]''. There are also great views up and down Amsterdam. The bridge (and plaza) were built in [[1964]].

-The plaza was developed as part of a master plan for the eastern part of campus by [[Max Abramovitz]]'s firm, in [[1956]]. Problematically, the plinth for the buildings on the eastern part of campus was developed several feet higher than the plinth of the central part of campus (on which [[Low Library]] rests, forcing stairs to be built from the historic part of campus to Revson.
