A Walk Through The Lower Concourse Rezoning District In The South Bronx

The other day I decided to take walk around the Lower Concourse Rezoning District so that I can document the area before it starts changing and buildings are either demolished or converted.

What struck me the most was the number of available signs for entire buildings or lots to be developed that weren’t there before.  It seems that owners are starting to pay attention to the media coverage and beginning to market their properties.

The area is still quite gritty and rather desolate in feel.  It is filled with a lot of great warehouses and architecture with potential for some nice loft apartments but other buildings would probably be better off torn down.
