Neighborhood

A very close jaunt over the Alexander Hamilton Bridge from Manhattan, High Bridge in the South Bronx stands as a hilly residential area within the city's urban oasis. Six- and seven-story brick apartment buildings coupled with three- and four- family homes make up the landscape of the neighborhood, and a precipitous drop in crime since the 1980s has put the affordable section of the city on the map.

Alexander Hamilton Bridge sits just north of the neighborhood's namesake, High Bridge, and crosses over the Harlem River and Manhattan's Highbridge Park, which hosts one of the largest swimming pools in New York City and more than 100 acres of parkland. A paltry 4 miles northeast of Manhattan's city center, 15 minutes by car or a 20-minute train ride is all that stands between residents and the action of the city.
