Townsend Harris Hall (on the right) will house the CUNY School of Medicine. It will share this space with the Sophie Davis School of Biomedical Education, which has occupied the building since its 2003 renovation. Designed by famed New York architect George B. Post and completed in 1908, the Collegiate Gothic-style building is named for Townsend Harris, the founder of City College, and was dedicated in a ceremony at which Mark Twain was the featured speaker.

The CUNY School of Medicine is a medical school that will open in the fall of 2016 as part of the City University of New York.

The new medical school will be based in Harlem on the campus of the City College of New York and will partner with Saint Barnabas Health System in the South Bronx for clinical medical education.^[1]

The Sophie Davis School of Biomedical Education, established on the campus of the City College of New York in 1973, will expand into the CUNY School of Medicine.^[2] Continuing the unique BS/MD program that has been in place for more than 40 years, matriculating students will undertake their undergraduate studies for the first 3 years at the school and then begin 2 years of didactic study in the sciences. Upon successful completion of the first 5 years of study, medical students will then complete their clerkship at St. Barnabas Hospital, culminating in their medical degree.
