History of the land
The land was originally owned by St. James Gyrodyne Company of America and acquired by the university in a controversial eminent domain case in which the courts decided against the state's $26 million appraisal in support of the owner's $126 million valuation and later denied the state's request for appeal.{{cite web |last=Jones |first=Leigh |date=November 25, 2011 |url=http://newsandinsight.thomsonreuters.com/New_York/News/2011/11_-_November/State_loses_$126_mln_eminent_domain_case_over_new_SUNY_center/ |title=State loses $126 mln eminent domain case over new SUNY center |website=Thomson Reuters}} The state ended up paying $167.5 million in a lawsuit settlement in 2012{{cite news |last=Sampson |first=Christine |date=July 5, 2012 |url=http://threevillage.patch.com/articles/gyrodyne-awarded-167-5m-in-lawsuit-against-new-york-state |title=Gyrodyne Gets $167.5M in Lawsuit Against New York State |work=Three Village, NY Patch}}
