I'm unfamiliar with the South Bronx, therefore not sure if that area has any good running trails, but if it doesn't, they should definitely factor that into the design of the community. Also, they should add grocery stores, like Whole Foods/Wegmans, a drug store, cafe, and a restaurant or two in that immediate area.
I have a friend who has one of those apartments and you wouldn’t believe how beautiful they are - not to mention the views to the city. Once inside you wouldn’t even think that you’re in the South Bronx. The apartments are no different from the ones in in Long Island City. They are spacious, with high ceilings, and gorgeous views to all of Manhattan, parts of New Jersey and Queens. The apartments are actually very therapeutic.

That area is pretty close to Randall's Island connector, which is a great park for running / bicycling
Looks nice, what I'd like to see for the area would be to underground and cap Major Deegan up until the Triborugh Bridge ramp / east of St. Ann's and building mixed-use and street-facing on NYCHA parking lots.

One of the poorest neighborhoods in New York City is quickly becoming the hub of large-scale residential developments.
The Bronx’s Mott Haven neighborhood is set to develop about 20 residential projects with more than 5,000 combined apartments in the coming years, according to the New York Times. Many of the projects include a 70-to-30 market-rate to affordable ratio, though some are entirely affordable units
