The Muste Building
In 1978, with a dream of establishing a permanent home in New York for the nonviolence movement, the Muste Institute purchased a three-story loft building in downtown Manhattan from the War Resisters League and began managing it as part of our program work. By providing affordable office and meeting space to our movement tenants, and using income from several commercial storefronts to offset expenses, the Institute has provided a way for activist groups to stay in a convenient location while freeing up vital resources for their social justice work. As the real estate market in New York City tightens, 339 Lafayette Street affectionately known as the "Peace Pentagon" has been a sanctuary for the movement. |
