View down 120th Street. The Grove on the left, Teachers College on the right, and Milbank Hall in the distance.

The Grove was a park at the northern end of the Morningside Heights campus located at street level directly across from Teachers College. It was part of Charles McKim's original campus plan. After years of developement on the site beginning with Pupin Hall, and followed by Mudd, Dodge Fitness Center, Computer Science and Fairchild, all but a very small portion of the original park has been eliminated- a fenced off patch of land at the corner of 120th St and Broadway behind Levien Gym and Pupin. Even that won't last for long. Excavation of the site is scheduled to begin on March 19, 2007 as part of the Northwest Science Building being built on top of Levien.
