    Controversy brews over move of Richard R. Green High School from Upper East Side to Harlem

    By Joe Kemp and Merdith Kolodner

    Charge of racism surfaced over a plan to move a
    mostly minority Upper East Side high school to
    Harlem to make way for the children of wealthy
    white local residents.

    Frustrated parents say the city's proposal to
    move Richard R. Green High School out of its
    26-year home on East 88th Street to a building
    next to the Wagner Housing projects at 120th
    St. smacks of discrimination.
    For the rest of the story, go here.
