Recent growth among Mount Eden’s historic multi-family housing
Mount Eden is a walkable neighborhood with a busy, upbeat vibe in a historic part of the South Bronx. “It’s still one of the affordable sectors of the Bronx, primarily because you have a lot of pre-war buildings that are rent stabilized in that area,” says Jeffrie Pena, the executive vice president of sales at Locqube New York, adding that these multi-unit buildings are known for being spacious. He adds that Mount Eden’s proximity to public transit, Claremont Park and Bronx Care, a major hospital, are other draws. Pena grew up in the surrounding area and has sold homes here for 12 years. He says the neighborhood has changed a lot in recent years, in part because rezoning brought new businesses and housing. “I think that there are a lot of positive changes coming to the area,” he says. “I think it’s going to continue to grow.” He says existing residents have been included in the changes and there’s been an effort not to price them out of the neighborhood.

Multi-family townhouses start at $775,000
Architecture is a major facet of Mount Eden’s many multi-family buildings. The neighborhood has one of the densest collection of Art Deco buildings in the world, with the biggest concentration of them along Grand Concourse, known as “the Concourse” to locals. “If you’re looking for something spacious that’s renovated, you can find it," Pena says. "If you’re looking for something pre-war that has a lot of the character that the area offers, you can find it.” The recent rezoning has attracted developers to Mount Eden, Pena adds, and most of the properties that go on the market are multi-family investment opportunities, whether they’re high-rise complexes or townhouses split into condos. Smaller two-family houses can start at about $775,000, but prices can climb as high as $1.4 million. People who own townhouses in the neighborhood often rent a second unit in their house. Most people who live in Mount Eden are renters.
