Houston Street Center

The long-awaited Houston Street Center opened its doors at 273 Bowery in March 2006. This 44,000-square-foot community building is co-owned and co-operated by University Settlement and the Chinatown YMCA. With state-of-the-art recreational and educational facilities, and plenty of flexible space, the Center is a unique community resource where longtime residents and recent arrivals can interact in a fun, relaxed setting.

The Center's success is dependent on a healthy, thriving partnership with the community. We welcome ideas for creating a meaningful gathering place that reflects the needs of all users. Please feel free to share your thoughts with Arnie Angerman, Center Director, at 212-475-5008 or by email at arnie@universitysettlement.org.
