Fordham / Tremont

Set in the central Bronx, Fordham and Tremont combine bustling commercial corridors with classic apartment blocks and leafy campuses. Visitors come for Fordham University’s Rose Hill campus, shopping along Fordham Road, the nearby New York Botanical Garden and Bronx Zoo, and the Art Deco stretch of the Grand Concourse. These draws concentrate demand around Fordham Plaza, the Fordham Metro-North station, and the streets linking to Arthur Avenue and Belmont.

Traffic is steady to heavy on Fordham Road, Webster Avenue, East Tremont Avenue, and the Grand Concourse, which makes curb space tight near transit hubs and major attractions. You will find a mix of metered street parking, residential blocks with alternate-side rules, and garages or lots clustered near Fordham Plaza and along the Concourse, so booking parking in advance reduces circling and stress. Always read posted signs, obey meters and hydrant setbacks, and confirm rules with updated official sources before you go. Planning ahead for parking in Fordham / Tremont helps you spend more time exploring and less time searching for a spot.
