Bronx Architecture – Architectural Sites A-Z

Scan Bronx architecture from A to Z or use the search below to find extraordinary buildings like at the Wildlife Conservation Society/ Bronx Zoo designed by Heins and La Farge and a central courtyard that is a direct outgrowth of the City Beautiful movement and the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893. Also explore Paul Rudolph's Tracey Towers, a landmark visible from northern Manhattan to Westchester County, incorporates organic curves that make its towers look like futuristic sandcastles and the Kingsbridge Armory, a massive structure that suggests a medieval castle, now being re-designed for community use. In addition to the Van Cortlandt Mansion and Poe Cottage, a number of homes are now museums - Valentine-Varian House, a 1758 farmhouse, that houses the Bronx Historical Society; the Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum on Long Island Sound; and Wave Hill with its gardens and Hudson River views. Lehman College Art Gallery, developer of this site, is located in a building designed by Marcel Breuer in 1960.
