GERARD AVENUE RESIDENCES DEVELOPMENT

The 153-unit, 491 Gerard Avenue Residences in the Mott Haven section of the Bronx represents the excitement and rebirth that is happening across the Bronx.  Mott Haven, close to Manhattan via the 145th Street Bridge, Madison Avenue Bridge, Willis Avenue Bridge and convenient subway and bus connections, offers the perfect location to take advantage of work and cultural opportunities in Manhattan while benefitting from more affordable and relaxed living options.

With the completion of 491 Gerard Avenue in late Spring 2018, the Gerard Avenue Residences and the adjacent Exterior Street building comprise a smart-growth, energy-efficient, mixed-income development with community facilities and exterior space to serve Mott Haven’s growing community. The design plan for 491 Gerard Avene emphasizes sustainable development, highlighted by rooftop solar arrays. The Gerard Avenue property will also feature an outdoor roof deck exclusively for Gerard Avenue residents.
