  1. Too small for this location. Should be double the height.

    Yet another Bronx residential project overlooking an elevated subway line.

  3. the last surviving house will be demolished.
    you can only imagine what this neighborhood used to look like

    • That house is a leftover house that belongs(ed) to the adjacent St. Helena’s School and Roman Catholic Church. I used to walk by it all the time, and there was a parish sign of some sort in front of it. It has been vacant and unused by the church/school for at least 20 years.
