In Fall 2017, Type A Projects and L+M Development Partners were designated a multi-acre site along the Harlem River in the South Bronx — one of the largest vacant, City-owned parcels left in the borough — that will transform a long-vacant site into a dynamic mixed-use development, an active connection to the waterfront and a world-class cultural destination.

Bronx Point promises to activate the riverfront and provide new, high-quality public open spaces alongside the development of 542 units of permanently affordable apartments in Phase I, a home for the Universal Hip Hop Museum, educational and service spaces for BronxWorks and the Billion Oyster Project, and retail spaces.

Integral to this project is the extension of Mill Pond Park, the creation of a waterfront esplanade, and activation of open space with family-centric programming including a new plaza on Exterior St, a playground, a grand viewing stair and landscaped opportunities for the community to come together.

Phase 1 of the project is anticipated to be complete in 2023.
