A restaurant bordering Columbia's proposed Manhattanville campus may be in danger of closing for good. Floridita was forced to temporarily close on Tuesday after their landlord—Columbia University—said they needed to take six weeks to repair their floor, or move to a new location on 12th Avenue. Owner Ramon Diaz said the University never considered options that would allow him to stay open while he leased and renovated a new location, and worries the loss of business would force him to close permanently. He told City Room, “I don’t know what I can do. Nobody is going to hire anybody my age." Another regular said, “Columbia is just a bunch of scoundrels. Scoundrels!"
