Property Description for 320 West Fordham Road
Cushman & Wakefield is pleased to offer for sale the fee simple
interest in 320 West Fordham Road, an approximately 3.7 acre
waterfront development site located in the University Heights
neighborhood of the Northwest Bronx. The site features over
742’ of valuable frontage along the Harlem River and offers
approximately 515,140 buildable square feet of residential space
as-of-right. Prospective developers have the ability to enlarge
the buildable potential to approximately 973,375 square feet
through the inclusion of community facility space.
With rental and condo prices reaching record levels throughout
Manhattan, the property presents an ideal opportunity for a
potential developer to capitalize on the demand for quality
housing from individuals and families that have been priced
out of other submarkets. The site is ideally situated adjacent
to the University Heights Metro-North station providing future
residents convenient access to Midtown Manhattan in less than
25 minutes.
The Bronx continues to evolve into a primary housing
destination for aspiring young professionals, families, and
individual city residents seeking a more affordable alternative
to other City neighborhoods, which is highlighted by the
nearly 3,500 residential units and 5 million square feet of
recently completed or planned projects within the submarket.
As majority of the aforementioned projects are South Bronx
focused, there remains significant growth potential within the
Northwest Bronx region and positions 320 West Fordham Road
as a truly unique waterfront development opportunity in one of
New York City’s most rapidly growing residential submarkets.
