The Furman Center is a joint center at New York University School of Law and the NYU Wagner School of Public Service. When the Furman Center first started, in 1994 at New York University, there was no single place where people interested in affordable housing and land use issues could turn to for factual, objective research and information. Since that time, the Furman Center has become the leading authority on such matters in New York City because of its dedication to their three-part mission.
