With so much going on in New York City\u2019s northernmost borough<\/a>, it\u2019s hard to pick just one reason developers are looking to the Bronx as the place to build new homes and infrastructure to support a new wave of residents. Neighborhoods like Riverdale and Morris Park have remained desirable residential neighborhoods, while others, like Mott Haven and Hunts Point, have seen a decade-long residential renaissance. Major multi-phase new developments have focused on the South Bronx waterfront<\/a> with luxury high-rises, affordable housing conversions, parks, promenades, and community and retail space to serve them.<\/p>\n Some of the properties featured here are part of paid partnerships, which help support our editorial work. All buildings are selected and independently reviewed by the 6sqft team.<\/p>\n The Bronx Metro North Plan, a major rezoning approved in 2024, is slated to bring $500 million in investments and thousands of new homes and jobs to a 46-block corridor of the East Bronx. The Kingsbridge Armory<\/a>, often cited as the largest armory in the world, is currently slated for redevelopment via a multi-use revitalization plan that will transform the 570,000-square-foot space into an entertainment, community, and manufacturing hub.<\/p>\n These investments build on attractions that have long attracted New Yorkers to the borough, like Van Cortlandt Park, Pelham Bay Park, the New York Botanical Garden, the Bronx Zoo, and Yankee Stadium. <\/p>\n At the same time, new rental apartment buildings such as The Arbor,<\/a> Estela<\/a>, and the massive Bankside<\/a> complex have brought new residents to the borough, with amenities you\u2019d expect in top Manhattan and Brooklyn buildings.<\/p>\n The Arbor<\/a> The Arbor in leafy, historic Riverdale sits just outside the city\u2019s urban hustle.
