The Bronxwood Tower

Wakefield is an urban neighborhood in the eastern section of the Bronx accessible to Manhattan through Interstate 87 or by hopping on one of the many public transit stations in the neighborhood. Wakefield is bounded by the Bronx River to the west, so many parks and trails that lead into the New York Botanical Garden are available to residents. The neighborhood itself consists of residential areas with apartments and condos in long-standing brick buildings as well as quaint rowhomes that make up the rental scene. Along with residences, this compact area is filled with a variety of restaurants serving everything from international cuisine to New York classics, and a range of shops and businesses provide Wakefield residents with the essentials. Other great features in the neighborhood include a community garden, green spaces, and a few schools.
