State Senator Gustavo Rivera - Join Bronx CB7's Public Hearings on the Kingsbridge Armory Developer's Plans!

Dear Neighbor, 


I want to share with you an important update about the Kingsbridge Armory Development Project.  


After selecting 8th Regiment Partners LLC as the Armory's new developer in February, the project has reached a new key milestone. This past Monday, the project was formally certified and marked the start of the seven-month Uniform Land Use Review Procedure, better known as ULURP. This means that the Department of City Planning (DCP) has deemed the application ready for public review. 


Your voice needs to be heard! In the weeks ahead, Bronx Community Board 7 will host two Public Hearings to inform the community about the proposed redevelopment and offer opportunities for public input.


It is essential that you participate in reviewing the project, learn about the efforts to ensure accountability from the developer, and advocate to maximize the benefits and investments for our Armory and our borough. The Armory has been vacant for too many years, and we can stand together to make it right and raise the standards for development that benefits us. 


If you participated in the Together for Kingsbridge community visioning process, your input helped select this developer. Now, we need to make sure our community’s vision becomes a reality. 


I hope to see you there!


Gustavo Rivera

New York State Senate

33rd District
