Construction is complete at 872 Bronx Park South, an eight-story mixed-use residential building at the corner of Bronx Park South and Mohegan Avenue in the West Farms section of The Bronx. The project was designed by Aufgang Architects and developed by DP Group and Sycamore Birch Management LLC.
The building includes 82 rental units, with 15 dedicated to affordable housing. From the street, the biggest takeaway is the finished exterior, a red brick facade with white and gray masonry trim framing a grid of recessed, square windows with black frames. The massing also includes a curve at the northwest corner, and a rounded black metal canopy marks the ground floor. The building is topped by a flat roof.
For mason contractors watching New York City multifamily work, projects like this are a reminder that brick is still a go-to material for durability and street presence. A tight window grid, recessed openings, and contrasting masonry trim can look clean when the layout is consistent, and when details are coordinated early so the finished courses and trim lines land where they are supposed to.
Inside, listed residential amenities include a lobby, an on-site resident manager, common area Wi-Fi, bike storage lockers, a shared laundry room, and a community center.
The nearest subway access is the 2 and 5 trains at the elevated West Farms Square–East Tremont Avenue station to the south. The property also sits just west of the entrance to the Bronx Zoo and River Park.
