Ritchie Torres Secures $12.3 Million for Bronx River Greenway Link
The city is set to move forward on a long-delayed project to build a key link in the Bronx River Greenway [PDF], thanks
to $12.3 million secured by Council Member Ritchie Torres as part of a half-billion dollar planto reconstruct West Farms’ Lambert Houses.
The two-way bike path will run north from Starlight Park along the west side of East 177th Street, guiding cyclists across East Tremont Avenue via a mid-block crossing to Bronx Street, a car-free block that connects to the Lambert Houses and Bronx River Park, the next leg of the greenway.
