The City Council supports New York City's application for a $2 million grant from the Empire State Development Corporation under the Restore New York Communities Initiative. Funds will be used to redevelop the Kingsbridge Armory, a 588,000 sq ft landmark structure, into a thriving mixed-use development that aligns with the Together for Kingsbridge Vision Plan. The redevelopment will enhance economic growth, create employment opportunities, and preserve community resources.
Transforms an underutilized landmark into an economic hub, promoting sustainable development and addressing employment and community needs in the Bronx.
