- One of the world's largest armories is right here in the northwest Bronx, but for years it's been sitting vacant with no permanent use. It's also costing the city thousands of dollars each year to maintain.
"These two towers, which were watch towers, are these beautiful gigantic structures. You can see them anywhere in the neighborhood, actually," explains Council Member Pierina Sanchez. "We're just very excited to actually see a community vision plan for this armory and to get something done this time," said Ortiz.
