For four decades, the Center for Urban Policy
Research (CUPR) has served the nation with basic and applied research
on a broad spectrum of public policy issues. CUPR is nationally and
internationally recognized for its work in the areas of affordable housing,
land-use policy, development impact analysis, the costs of sprawl,
transportation information systems, population and employment projections, and
the economic impacts of historic preservation. CUPR has developed a wide array
of fiscal, environmental, transportation, and quality-of-life impact models
that have been used in major public policy evaluations throughout the United
States. Housed within the center are CUPR Press, one of
the nation's premier publishers in the field of city and regional planning; the
Rutgers Economic Advisory Service (R/ECONTM), an economic
forecasting service that provides quarterly analyses for the state and special
reports for clients nationwide; and the Institute for
Meadowlands Studies, a resource for socioeconomic policy analysis for the
New Jersey Meadowlands Commission, a zoning and
planning agency for parts of 14 municipalities in northern New Jersey.
