His argument in a nutshell: why relegate NYC's tech hub to a single university on a cramped island, relatively inaccessible by subway (which Ramen-subsisting entrepreneurs will need), when you can situate it in the middle of 60+ acres, near the 7 Train, Mets/tennis sports center, and LaGuardia airport, with enough room for several universities plus office space and restaurants and other amenities.
He thinks NYC's attempt at recreating SV will be DOA if it tries to build 'Silicon Island'. Imagine instead having a 60 acre campus with say, Stanford, Cornell, and the Technion, alongside incubators and other entrepreneurial support infrastructure, in the middle of a hungry immigrant community. That's a better recipe for success.
