It’s also located within walking distance to the Bronx Zoo.
As far as transportation goes, the building is just a short walk to the 2 and 5 line at West Farms Square / E Tremont Avenue at the crossroads of several bus lines as well.
You have until June 30, 2020 to apply and you can do so by going to NYC Housing Connect here.
