Mr. Aubrey Green built the current Green Center headquarters as his family home in 1932. In the 1970's the City of University City bought seven acres of land, including the Green home to develop Kaufman Park, but the portion that contained the home was leased back to Mr. Green, where he resided until his death in 1995. When the city once again took possession of the house in 1995, there was much debate about how to use the house. In 1998, the lease was signed to use the Green Center as a place for Environmental Education and the Arts.
