Are there any condos (present or in construction) within walking distance (15 blocks or less) to the Fordham Road station? If so, what is the name and going rate for 2 and 3 bedrooms apts?
I don't think there are too many condo projects within an easy walk of the Fordham Rd metro north stop. If you do a search on Trulia or the NYT real estate site you will probably find a few and the 2 or 3 br's will probably be in the 250 to $300,000 range.
If you are willing to consider a coop you will have a much wider selection ... and at 50 to $100,000 less.
There are no "big" condo projects( more than 8 or 10 units) at all in that area as far as I know.
I recently spent over a year looking at coops and condos all over the Bronx and that was my experience anyway.I went the coop route and found a nice 2 br for under 200.
Good luck!
By the way,15 blocks can be a huge piece of real estate in The Bronx and I am not sure that it should really be considered "walking distance" on a regular basis.
The first is at the far end of the Bronx Zoo, and the other is in Norwood. They recently built something real close to the Fordham station, I could see the construction from here, but maybe it's just office space.
There's definitely co-ops in the Fordham area like people have mentioned. They've probably been there for some time I would imagine. I don't know of any condos though.
ago someone menioned a co-op on Creston Ave and 198th street. It's difficult to picture.
NO! not a good area. I live a couple blocks from there.
Bronx condos = PARKCHESTER. I can't remember their website but google it - parkchester NY. It's not far from the metro north on Fordham - just take the #22 bus straight there.
Their condos are nice, big and affordable and it's a safe area!
