About Port Morris, Bronx

Port Morris is between the East River and Harlem River, and is filled with both residential and commercial properties. The Randall’s Island Connector is a short walk from Port Morris, allowing residents access to the park and its attractions. The area was formerly a piano manufacturing mecca so there are still old factories and warehouses with character throughout the neighborhood. Now, it contains an artist’s community that is evidenced by the street art that is on every corner, as well as local galleries. The building is close to restaurants, nightlife, and breweries, as well as transportation such as the 4, 5, and 6 subway lines, making for an easy commute.
