Let’s say that this is the right development for the 11-story building, or it can be said to be nothing damaged. But it is best to talk for reasons, why the plan needs to be planned. Questions and answered. (Thank you)
Is there any site or place to apply for one of this apartments?
Thanks,
So just jam an 11 story building into a tight space. The building currently standing is fairly recently built (1990’s??). WHY?? There are so many other spaces in The Bronx that can use new larger building (Mott Haven, Melrose, WoodStock). All these ugly building going up I hope there are actual tenants living in them.
These large buildings going up all over the Bronx fill up quickly. It makes sense to max out density in areas close to subway stations. And those mentioned neighborhoods are receiving larger buildings as well. And I would argue most of the buildings being constructed now look much better than the 90s era infill as shown above.
if its not complaining about more affordable housing its complaining about something else. shocks me how small minded people are
Why they building a commercial apartment on residence? Why city approves it?
So many new building going up in bedford park which is already overpopulated. Parking is an utter disaster in this area. They should’ve made affordable parking lots in these abandoned lots. These new buildings better have parking garages.
