Working-class families from all over the City moved to this stable community. The community was known for its pop culture of Mambo with clubs like the Hunts Point Palace on Southern Boulevard featuring artists such as Tito Puente. In the 1960s, the steel companies started leaving Hunts Point and the manu- facturing jobs started disappearing. In 1967, Mayor John Lindsay had a bold plan for creating a food distribution center on the marshes and beaches of Corpus Christi Monastery Hunts Point. The vision was tremendous—replace the ebbing manufacturing jobs with a new industry. The vision included state-of-the-art facilities for meat, produce and fish wholesalers. The location was convenient for goods to travel in and out by all types of transportation—rail, highway and water. By locating all of New York City's food markets in one full-service hub, retailers could conveniently purchase everything that they needed in one location. In some respects, this vision has been realized. In the 1970s the Hunts Point Cooperative (meat) Market and Hunts Point Terminal (produce) Market were built. Over the years, many food distribution companies have come to join the market, including A.L. Bazzini Nut Company, A&P, Krasdale Foods, Sultana Foods and, most recently, Citarella. With more than 115 produce, meat and poultry wholesalers, the businesses in the markets generate aggregate revenues of over $3 billion annually. The Hunts Point Terminal Market alone provides over 2.7 billion pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables annually. Today, the City is quickly building the newest addition to the Food Distribution Center: the New Haven Line, Hunts Point Railroad Station Fulton Fish Market at Hunts Point. The fish market will add $1 billion of annual economic activity to the Hunts Point peninsula and about 600 permanent jobs to the Bronx. In other respects, Mayor Lindsay's vision has yet to be fully realized. The plans to use the waterfront as a working waterfront never materialized, rail freight diminished as a mode for transporting food, and truck traffic increased dramatically. Impacts from the highways and the local environment continue to raise health concerns for the community; 25 out of every 1,000 children in the Hunts Point area have been hospitalized for asthma. Unemployment in the Hunts Point area is the highest in New York City. Nearly 50 acres on the peninsula are vacant or potentially environmentally contami- nated. Implementing the 1960s vision in today's world presents us with real challenges: (1) how to build a globally competitive infrastructure for the Photographs courtesy of The Point Community Development Corporation and the Bronx County Historical Society Photographs courtesy of The Point Community Development Corporation and the Bronx businesses, and (2) how to build an environment in which residents are healthy, Steam boat in Port Morris thriving neighbors of the markets and businesses.

  • Bronx Arterial Needs Major Investment Study Executive Summary March 2004
    Bronx Arterial Needs Major Investment Study Executive Summary March 2004 New York State Department of Transportation URBITRAN Submitted by Urbitran Associates, Inc. In association with Parsons Brinckerhoff Quade and Douglas Howard / Stein-Hudson Associates, Inc. Eng-Wong, Taub and Associates Herbert S. Levinson EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ES.1.0 INTRODUCTION The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) initiated the Bronx Arterial Needs Major Investment Study (BAN MIS) to identify and develop transportation solutions from a multi-modal travel perspective. The focus of the BAN MIS was on the arterial system in the Bronx and, in particular, the Cross Bronx Expressway (CBE, I-95) and Major Deegan Expressway (MDE, I-87). Improvement alternatives were developed to address concerns with traffic operations and safety, transit services, goods movement, and bicycle and pedestrian mobility in these congested highway corridors. Special consideration was given to the Highbridge Interchange, which provides a connection between the CBE and MDE and the George Washington Bridge (GWB). The purpose of the BAN MIS was to assess current and future travel conditions and problems and to develop projects, programs and strategies to improve the movement of people and goods on the CBE and MDE corridors. Figure ES-1 shows a map of the study area, which includes the CBE from the GWB to the Throgs Neck and Bronx-Whitestone bridges and the MDE from the Triborough Bridge to the Bronx/Westchester county border. The Final Report does not provide any formal recommendations or preferred alternatives. The strategy is to look at the existing program of projects and to find ones that could integrate some of the improvement alternatives from this study.
