The South Bronx Marketplace
In the neighborhood of Melrose, located at 665-673 Elton Avenue, just off the economically thriving 3rd Avenue, are seven adjoining retail shops managed by Heights Real Estate. A few blocks to the southwest down 3rd Avenue is The Hub. The Hub is known for being the ”retail heart of the South Bronx” and is considered to resemble Times Square in the capacity of high-volume traffic and high-density consumerism.
Since the extremely successful opening of the “Hub Retail and Office Center” in 2007, The Hub’s boundaries now extend as far northeast as 3rd Avenue and 156th Street; ending one block north of our location. 3rd Avenue is lined with retail stores such as GNC, Lids, Athletes Foot, Modells, Payless, Foot Locker, Third Avenue Mini-Mall, Nine West, and Ashley Stuart, amongst many specialty boutiques and trendy stores. This medley of shops yields a high-traffic zone for a range of consumers, day and night.
