Read more about Melrose

The neighborhood is named for the Melrose train station that once stood on the Harlem Line. Housing is a mix of pre-war apartment buildings concentrated along the Grand Concourse and Third Avenue, mid-century affordable housing developments, and a smaller share of two- and three-family row homes.

Melrose is served by the 2 and 5 trains (3rd Avenue–149th Street and Jackson Avenue stations) and multiple bus routes. The neighborhood is anchored by The Hub, the major commercial center at the intersection of Third Avenue, Willis Avenue, and 149th Street — historically one of the busiest retail districts in the Bronx. Melrose has seen substantial affordable housing development in recent decades.
