The New York State Court of Appeals on Tuesday agreed to hear a case against New York University’s expansion plan, a move that paves the way for critics to try again to block the school’s initiative to expand throughout Greenwich Village. A lower court ruled last year that parts of the school’s plan to grow by some 2 million square feet required legislative approval, but in October the appellate division of the New York Supreme Court reversed that decision.
