YIMBY recently checked in on the progress of three mid- and high-rise residential buildings under construction in Bedford Park, The Bronx. The sites are all located near the Grand Concourse and within walking distance of the Bedford Park Boulevard subway station.
Construction is rising on 3099 Villa Avenue, a high-rise residential building between East 203rd Street and Bedford Park Boulevard. Designed by Rise Architecture, the structure will yield 95 units with an average scope of 1,225 square feet.
While the most recent permit filings indicate a 13-story height, the following photos show the reinforced concrete superstructure built to the 16th story. It is unclear how tall the building will eventually stand, or whether the unit count has also been expanded.

The property was formerly occupied by two low-rise residential buildings at 3071 and 2073 Villa Avenue, as seen in the below Google Street View image from before their demolition.
The new building is slated for completion in the spring of 2028.
Work is nearing completion on 225 Bedford Park Boulevard, a nine-story residential building at the corner of Bedford Park Boulevard and Valentine Avenue. Designed by Badaly Architects and developed by Vilson Lumaj, the 84-foot-tall development yields 73 rental units with an average scope 664 square feet, as well as a cellar level and a 30-foot-long side yard.
The following photos show the exterior fully complete with the exception of the ground level, which remains blocked off by wooden fencing and construction equipment. The façade is composed of beige paneling surrounding a grid of large rectangular windows. Interiors are well underway at this point, and YIMBY expects work to fully wrap up this spring.

Foundations are underway at 213 East 202nd Street, the site of a six-story residential building between Grand Concourse and Valentine Avenue. Designed by Bayside Engineering for BP E 202 BX LLC, the 50-foot-tall structure will yield 19 rental units with an average scope of 512 square feet. The project will also include 1,326 square feet of commercial space and a rear yard, according to permits filed in August 2024.
The following photos show the concrete slab, perimeter walls, and cores formed, with rebar protruding at the locations of the forthcoming inner columns and walls. YIMBY expects construction to begin rising above street level sometime this spring.

The preliminary elevation diagram from the info board depicts a straightforward massing with a simple fenestration and a bulkhead set back from the street. It is unclear what materials will be used for the façade.
