You are trying tobuild a playground in Manhattan. You are not targeting all children, but a specific set of children based on geographic location.You are sympathetic towards public schools, plus the UFT has offered you money for this project, with the caveat that this playground should better serve children who attend public school.For the purpose of this exercise we are going to draw a shallow buffer (2 city blocks) 528 feet around both public and private schools.
Your task is to find areas in Manhattan that are within two blocks or 528 feet of public schools, but at least two blocks or 528 feet from private schools.
The area you need to build your playground on should also be between 20,000 and 35,000 square feet
