Demolition work is nearing completion at 200 East Tremont Avenue in the Mt. Hope neighborhood of The Bronx. 200 East Tremont JV LLC is listed as the owner and Xolle Demo LLC is the general contractor for the property, which spans a quarter of an acre at the corner of East Tremont Avenue and Monroe Avenue, just to the east of the Grand Concourse. No information has been revealed for the forthcoming development, as only demolition permits have been filed thus far. The land currently remains zoned for commercial development.
Recent photographs show the former low-rise occupant of the property fully razed and an excavator tearing up the concrete slab, revealing the cellar level. Large piles of excavated dirt, debris, and brick rubble can be seen through the wraparound sidewalk shed.

Below is a Google Street View image from March 2022 showing the three-story brick-clad building prior to the start of demolition. The structure was built in 1910 and housed a range of commercial and retail tenants into the 2000s, including a beauty salon, a restaurant with a lounge, a barbershop, a corner bodega, and an auto repair shop across the ground floor.

The nearest subways from the property are the B and D trains at the Tremont Avenue station to the north. The Tremont Avenue station of the Metro-North Railroad is also located nearby, providing access to the Harlem Line.
Demolition is slated to be finished later this spring.
