A mid-century gem in the heart of Kingsbridge
The Latitude Condominiums, completed in 1957, stands as a testament to mid-century architecture in the vibrant Kingsbridge neighborhood of the Bronx. This 7-story building houses 56 units, offering a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts. Situated on tree-lined Greystone Avenue, the building provides residents with a blend of urban convenience and suburban tranquility. Its location offers easy access to local amenities while maintaining a sense of community that has been a hallmark of the area for decades.
Spacious layouts with abundant natural light
The Latitude Condominiums offers a range of floor plans to suit various lifestyles. Studios, spanning 500 to 650 square feet, provide efficient living spaces with one bathroom. One-bedroom units, ranging from 650 to 1,000 square feet, offer more room to spread out and are priced from $159,900 to $190,000. For those requiring additional space, two-bedroom units range from 850 to 1,250 square feet, featuring one to two bathrooms, with prices around $210,000.
Many units boast hardwood floors throughout, adding warmth and character to the living spaces. The apartments are known for their abundance of natural light, with some featuring as many as 10 windows, creating bright and airy interiors. Corner units are particularly sought after, offering multiple exposures and tree-top views.
Kitchens in the building vary, with some units featuring updated spaces including stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and maple cabinetry. Others maintain a more classic look with white cabinetry and black granite countertops. Bathrooms have seen updates in many units, with some boasting freshly reglazed tubs and bright white tiles.
Storage is a strong point in The Latitude, with many units featuring ample closet space. Some apartments even boast three closets in the entry foyer alone. The flexible layouts of certain units allow for the possibility of creating home office spaces or dining areas, adding to the versatility of the living arrangements.

The building is equipped with central air conditioning and heating systems, with tenant-controlled HVAC units ensuring individual comfort. Smoke-free policies are in place, contributing to a healthier living environment for all residents.
A vibrant community with rich history and diverse offerings
The Latitude Condominiums is situated in Kingsbridge, a neighborhood known for its mix of housing styles and strong sense of community. The area is characterized by a blend of new construction condos and spacious prewar houses, creating a diverse architectural landscape.
One of Kingsbridge's unique features is its Mitchell-Lama developments, such as the Amalgamated Housing Cooperative. These state-sponsored limited-equity housing co-ops have played a significant role in stabilizing property values and fostering a sense of community investment throughout the neighborhood.
The area is rich in local amenities. For grocery shopping, residents have several options within walking distance. Key Food Supermarkets is just a five-minute walk away, while the highly-rated Garden Gourmet Market is about ten minutes on foot, offering a selection of organic produce and imported cheeses.
Dining options in the neighborhood cater to various tastes. Yo-Burger, a modern and popular burger joint, is a mere five-minute walk from The Latitude. For those craving Latin American and Caribbean flavors, El Economico is about a ten-minute walk away, known for its homestyle staples and combo meals.
The neighborhood also boasts several parks for outdoor recreation. Ewen Park, just a five-minute walk from the building, features a dog park, basketball courts, and a play area with sprinklers. For more extensive green space, Van Cortlandt Park, the third-largest park in New York City, is within reach, offering golf courses, running paths, and various sports facilities.
Shopping needs are well-served by nearby options. Riverdale Crossing, about a 15-minute walk away, houses major retailers like BJ's and Petco. For bargain hunters, T.J. Maxx is also within walking distance, offering brand-name apparel and housewares at discounted prices.
Education is a strong point in the area, with several well-regarded schools nearby. P.S. 24 Spuyten Duyvil, an elementary school with a GreatSchools rating of 9 out of 10, is just a 10-minute walk from The Latitude. For older students, Riverdale Kingsbridge Academy, serving both middle and high school levels, is about a 15-minute walk away.
The neighborhood's character is further enhanced by its famous step street on West 230th Street, the longest in all five boroughs, connecting Kingsbridge to neighboring areas via 160 steep steps. This unique feature adds to the area's charm and provides a distinctive landmark for residents and visitors alike.
Well-connected with multiple transit options
The Latitude Condominiums benefits from excellent transportation links, making it easy for residents to navigate both the local area and the wider city. The building's location on Greystone Avenue puts several transit options within easy reach.
For bus commuters, the Riverdale Av & Greystone Av stop is practically at the doorstep, less than a minute's walk away. This stop serves the Riverdale - Washington Heights line, providing a direct connection to Upper Manhattan. Just a five-minute walk from the building, the Riverdale Av & W 236 St stop offers additional options, including express buses to East and West Midtown, expanding commute choices for those working in Manhattan's business districts.
Subway access is convenient, with the 238 Street station on the 1 line about a 10-minute walk away. This line provides a direct route into Manhattan, connecting residents to the city's extensive subway network.
For those preferring regional rail, the Metro-North Marble Hill Station is within reach. While it's about a 20-minute walk, it's only a five-minute drive, making it a viable option for commuters heading to Grand Central Terminal or points north along the Hudson Line.
Cyclists should note that while the neighborhood has some bike-friendly features, it's not considered highly bikeable. However, the building's bicycle room provides secure storage for those who do choose to cycle.
For residents with cars, the building's location offers good access to major roadways. While specific highways aren't mentioned in the provided information, the neighborhood's position in the Bronx typically ensures relatively quick access to routes connecting to other parts of New York City and beyond.
It's worth noting that while car ownership is certainly an option, with the building offering garage parking (albeit with a waitlist), the abundance of public transit options means that many residents may find they can comfortably live without a personal vehicle. This aligns with the neighborhood's high transit score, indicating excellent public transportation options.
For those traveling further afield, three major airports serve the area. LaGuardia Airport is the closest, about a 20-minute drive away, while John F. Kennedy International Airport and Westchester County Airport are both reachable in about 35 minutes by car.
The combination of local buses, subway access, regional rail, and proximity to airports makes The Latitude Condominiums a well-connected home base, suitable for both city commuters and frequent travelers.
