Foxhurst is a neighborhood in the South Bronx. This urban neighborhood boasts an excellent location, located on the west side of Interstate 278 and the Bronx River about six miles from Manhattan. Foxhurst is roughly two miles east of the Yankee Stadium and the Bronx Museum of the Arts. Bronx Park, home of the Bronx Zoo and the New York Botanical Garden, is two miles north of Foxhurst as well. Along with the highway, Foxhurst has several subway stations making traveling throughout the Big Apple easier.
Foxhurst encompasses what you'll find in most Bronx neighborhoods: brick apartments above street-level storefronts, wide sidewalks crowded with pedestrians, bodegas, international restaurants, and iron fire escapes cascading down the sides of historic buildings. You'll also discover a few surprises, like the beauty of Concrete Plant Park, a former concrete plant-turned- riverfront park.
