| | Polytechnic University - Fulfilling the American Dream (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05) |
 | | Fifteen years ago, Polytechnic University, under the direction of then-President George Bugliarello, now the University's chancellor, worked to bring about MetroTech Center, one of the largest urban university-corporate parks in the world and the largest in the United States. |
 | | Today, MetroTech is home to several technology-dependent companies, such as KeySpan (formerly Brooklyn Union Gas), Bear Stearns and Co., Securities Industries Automation Corp., New York City Police Department 911 Answering Center, New York City Fire Department Headquarters and the U.S. technology and operations functions of Chase Manhattan Bank. |
 | | MetroTech has proven to be a case study in university, corporate, government and private developer cooperation, and has resulted in renewing an area that had once been a site of urban decay and despair. |
