Renderings from KSS Architects are the first to reveal the new permanent home of the Bold Charter School at 1472 Boston Road in the Crotona East Park neighborhood of The Bronx. The new building will comprise 81,590 square feet and will serve students currently enrolled in two temporary facilities at 1093 Southern Boulevard and 1090 Close Avenue, also in The Bronx.
When complete, the building will stand eight stories tall with a brick and gray cladded exterior. The massing features a large setback above the fourth floor to make room for an outdoor terrace, and additional outdoor play areas on the roof of the building.
Inside, the school will offer 27 classrooms, a full-size gymnasium, and a cafeteria.
“1472 Boston Road advances our mission of building world-class public schools and delivers on our commitment to achieving the extraordinary in everything we do,” said Andrew Foglia, founder and executive director, Bold Charter School. “We’re thrilled to create a learning environment worthy of our families’ aspirations and our students’ futures.”
The school is expected to open for the 2025/2026 academic year and will serve K-8 students in School District 12, with the capacity to support approximately 810 students.
