You Can Live Above NYC’s Future Hip Hop Museum For Less Than $500/Month

A much-needed hip hop museum is finally coming to The Bronx in 2024, and for less than $500/month you can live above it!

Bronx Point, Mott Haven’s major waterfront project, just opened this week and a housing lottery is underway.

Situated at 50 East 150th Street, Bronx Point is a 22-story, 530,000-square-foot development that includes over 1,000 apartments. 432 mixed-income units are currently up for grabs in the first phase of the lottery, all of which are subject to rent stabilization.

The development is a short walk to the 2, 3, 4, and 5 subway lines as well as the Bx1, Bx19, and Bx13 buses, and those lucky enough to score a unit would be living above the future Universal Hip Hop Museum.
