The wide-ranging Bronx Metro-North station plan includes new stations in Morris Park, Hunts Point, Parkchester/Van Nest, and Co-Op City, aiming to bring an estimated 7,500 new homes and 10,000 jobs to Morris Park and Parkchester/Van Nest.
The plan intends to capitalize on the proximity to existing large employers like Montefiore Hospital, Jacobi Medical Center, Calvary Hospital, and Hutchinson Metro Center to boost the job market in Morris Park and Hunts Point.
The proposed rezoning in Co-Op City and Hunts Point under the plan focuses on potential business development, while infrastructure upgrades around the stations are planned to accommodate increased foot traffic and population density.
Community Board 10, which includes Co-Op City, voted against the plan, expressing concerns over building heights, supporting infrastructure, and parking related to the proposed rezoning.
