A 100% Affordable Campus Transforming Hunts Point
The Peninsula is a major mixed-use campus rising in Hunts Point, Bronx, on the site of the former Spofford Juvenile Detention Center. When complete, the development will deliver 740 units of 100% affordable housing alongside community-serving spaces that bring jobs, services, and new energy to the neighborhood. The Peninsula is more than apartments—it’s a long-term investment in Hunts Point, designed to support families, local businesses, and community life. If you’re searching for Bronx affordable housing development opportunities, this project is one of the most significant in New York City.
