The Peninsula
Revitalizing Hunts Point with Affordable Housing and Job Opportunities
Bronx, NY
The Peninsula development is located in the Hunts Point area of the Bronx, where it transforms the former Spofford Juvenile Detention facility into a dynamic and sustainable mixed-use community. This ambitious project includes four 14-story buildings offering 100% affordable and supportive housing for local residents. In addition to the housing component, the development also features Building 1A, a two-story light industrial building designed to support local businesses and foster economic growth within the community.
Building 1A is equipped with state-of-the-art mechanical, plumbing, and electrical systems, providing the infrastructure for eleven tenant spaces. These spaces are designated for light industrial and manufacturing businesses that will create job opportunities for Bronx residents. The building itself is a striking architectural achievement, combining architectural concrete, channel glass, and metal panel elements in its façade.
A key feature of the development is its commitment to sustainability, as the entire project meets LEED Silver standards and includes a comprehensive zero-waste program. The Peninsula aims to revitalize the Hunts Point area by offering affordable housing, local employment, and community-focused public spaces, ultimately enhancing the economic and social fabric of the neighborhood.
