Why Live in Van Nest

Van Nest, a one-square-mile neighborhood in the East Bronx, is characterized by its mix of residential blocks and local businesses. Flanked by Bronx Park to the west, home to the Bronx Zoo and New York Botanical Gardens, and the residential areas of Pelham Parkway and Morris Park to the east, Van Nest offers a blend of community and convenience. The neighborhood features detached and semi-detached three-story homes, many dating back to the early 20th century, with styles including Queen Anne, Italianate, brick, and colonial with vinyl siding. Local businesses along Morris Park Avenue include the historic Conti’s Pastry Shoppe, known for its Boston Cream pie. Despite its name, Crepe House Morris Park is located in Van Nest and serves dessert crepes. Little Yemen, a section of Van Nest, boasts Arabic-language storefronts, grocers, coffee shops, and restaurants like Azal, a halal eatery. The community enjoys year-round events such as the Fall Festival and Christmas tree lighting, and the Yemeni American Day Parade. Van Nest Park and the expansive Bronx Park provide recreational spaces with playgrounds, bike paths, and sports courts. The neighborhood is served by the 2 and 5 trains at Bronx Park East and East 180th Street stations, with Midtown reachable in about 35 minutes. Icahn Charter School 2 and the Collegiate Institute for Math & Science are highly rated educational options nearby. The community has seen significant improvements in safety since 2010. Future plans include a new Metro-North station as part of the Penn Access project, expected to enhance connectivity and development by 2027.
