Compact residential streets next to Bronx Park
Pelham Parkway sits right where the lawns of the Mosholu-Pelham Greenway meet the sprawling, 718-acre Bronx Park. This triangular-shaped northern Bronx neighborhood has a dense layout of long blocks of mid-rise apartment and co-op buildings with local businesses at the intersections. The red-brick residential theme continues into the east side’s single- and multifamily houses, “but this area is more about buildings with really good prices,” says Maria Capotorto, who grew up in the neighborhood and has over six years of real estate experience. “There’s an entry point,” she says, referring to co-op units averaging $200,000, “and you’re gonna get more space, too.” With 2 and 5 express trains nearby, Pelham Parkway is a smart choice for commuters who want more square footage or the chance to own a house in New York City for well under $1 million.
Bronx Park is a great place to bring the whole family in the Pelham Parkway neighborhood.
The Pelham Parkway community is a small attractive community with great appeal.

In Pelham Parkway, businesses congregate in the northwest corner. On White Plains Road, just off the subway station, “there are franchises and mom-and-pop stores mixed together,” Capotorto says. “So you can get fresh tamarind juice, street tacos as well as Starbucks.” Lydig Avenue, the main east-west road, has restaurants that cover the standard New York City lineup of Chinese, Latin American and Italian cuisine, as well as Jamaican and Eastern European spots. Plus, there are multiple supermarkets for groceries.
