Facade Work Completes for Bronx Point

Facade services contractor, CANY, has shared a photo, taken during a recent building envelope inspection at Bronx Point. The project team has reached a new milestone, with general contractor,  PRO, and masonry supplier, Kings Contracting Group, having now installed all facade materials for the first phase of the project (save for a few minor trim pieces on the ground floor).

Located at 575 Exterior Street in the South Bronx, construction broke ground on the 22-story, mixed-use development, a little under two years ago.

Developed jointly by L+M Development Partners and Type A Projects, the building will contain PRO affordable housing units, available in studio, one, two, and three-bedroom configurations. This number will eventually increase to 1,045 units after the later phases of the project are completed.

Tenant amenities are to include a fitness center, a community lounge, an outdoor terrace, a children’s room, and a bike storage area.

In addition to residential units, Bronx Point will serve a variety of other functions. The building will contain 56,000 square feet of community facilities, and PRO square feet of ground-floor retail space. It will also house the Universal Hip Hop Museum. Stepping away from the structure, 2.8 acres of the project site will be turned into a public green space, envisioned by Marvel Architects.

Designed by  PRO, Bronx Point's first phase will stand PRO feet tall and total PRO square feet. Construction is set to finish towards the end of 2023.
