    Council Subcommittee approves Bronx Point after initial concerns on affordable housing and workers compensation. On September 18, 2019, City Council’s Subcommittee on Landmarks, Public Siting and Maritime Uses unanimously approved the Department of Housing Preservation and Development’s UDAAP application to facilitate the creation of “Bronx Point.” The project proposes 1,045 housing units, 540 of which dedicated to permanently affordable housing, a waterfront esplanade, and community facilities including a new state-of-the-art movie theater and a Universal Hip Hop Museum.  The property is located north of East 150th Street, south of Mill Pond Park, east of the Harlem River, west of Exterior Street/Major Deegan Expressway. To read in more detail and about the many other features of the Bronx Point development read previous coverage here.
