We’re a little surprised no one has thought to gut that architectural beast that is Cooper Union and turn it into condos and a Keith McNally restaurant. Tonight, the university hosts an Urban Visionaries event, honoring David Childs, skyscraper designer; Kenyon-born art star Wangechi Mutu; and Vanity Fair photographer Annie Leibovitz.

[Cooper Union’s Urban Visionaries, 7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, 6:30 p.m., 212-353-4100]
