East 149th Street co-named Eugenio Maria de Hostos Boulevard, is a major east-west thoroughfare in the South Bronx section of New York City, running from the Harlem River in the west to the East River in the east. It serves as the border for the neighborhoods of Mott Haven, Concourse Village, Melrose, Port Morris, and Hunts Point. East 149th Street has played a significant role in the development of the Bronx, serving as a key commercial, transportation, and cultural corridor for over a century. In the mid-to-late 1800s, as the Bronx transitioned from rural farmland to an urbanized borough, East 149th Street emerged as an important roadway connecting the waterfront industries along the Harlem River to the growing residential and commercial districts further east. The construction of the 145th Street Bridge in 1905 provided a direct connection between Upper Manhattan and the Bronx, reinforcing 149th Street’s role as a vital east-west route. By the early 1900s, 149th Street became a bustling commercial strip, particularly at the intersection of Third Avenue, Melrose Avenue, and Willis Avenue, where The Hub developed as a major shopping and business district. This area became known as "The Broadway of the Bronx", attracting department stores, theaters, and restaurants. The expansion of the elevated train and trolley lines further boosted commercial activity, making 149th Street one of the busiest streets in the South Bronx. The 1950s-1970s saw economic shifts that impacted the Bronx, including deindustrialization, suburban migration, and financial disinvestment. Many businesses along 149th Street closed, and The Hub declined in prominence. The South Bronx became synonymous with urban decay during this period, as abandoned buildings and economic hardship affected the neighborhood. Recently, East 149th Street has experienced significant revitalization. New housing developments, community initiatives, and commercial investments have brought renewed vibrancy to the corridor. The Bronx General Post Office at 560 East 149th Street, a landmarked Art Deco building, was repurposed into a mixed-use facility. The East 149th Street Development transformed an underutilized industrial site into 310 units of affordable housing and recreational space, addressing the community's need for residential options. Additionally, 110 East 149th Street became the first ground-up office building constructed in the Bronx in decades, reflecting the area's growing appeal as a place to live and work.
