CB 7 Must Vote ‘No’ on Armory Development
On June 24, Community Board 7 held a public hearing on the Related Companies’ application to develop the Kingsbridge Armory.

If done well, this project will become an engine to revitalize the community; helping northwest Bronx residents succeed for generations to come, with new schools, recreation and community space, new shops which do not drive out existing neighborhood business, and the creation of good jobs for local residents.
Sadly, Related’s application for the sale and rezoning of the Armory falls far short of these goals.
