We will provide an overview of the planning work to-date, and, most importantly, details about the upcoming public process and how you can continue to engage with us on the proposal in the coming months.

By 2027, Metro-North will bring four new stations to the borough at Hunts Point, Parkchester/Van Nest, Morris Park, and Co-Op City. The stations will dramatically increase access for Bronxites across the borough, the City, and the Region. This represents a once in a lifetime opportunity to thoughtfully plan for the growth of housing and jobs around the new transit service and to improve access to and from the future stations.

EDITOR'S NOTE:

Mayor Adams has proposed to build 3,000 units of affordable housing at the Morris Park Station, and 3,000 units of affordable housing at the Parkchester/Van Nest station only. No new affordable housing will be built at the other two new Metro North stations. This is above the almost 1,000 new units of affordable housing and two 200 bed single men's homeless shelters being built in Community Board 11 where members have been placed on the community board to advance this overdevelopment. 

Say NO to this overdevelopment.
