The architects began their study of the lot\u2019s potential, while working on their renovations to the aging building\u2014recognizing early in the process that any new construction would require approval by NYC\u2019s Department of City Planning to relieve the site of decades old restrictions mandating a \u201ctower in the park\u201d use of the site.<\/p>\n<p>Close collaboration with the city\u2019s planners in the years that followed allowed the project to be a case study for zoning updates already in the making, further supporting more affordable housing throughout the five boroughs, with a focus on housing for independent seniors.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_203026\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-203026\" style=\"width: 317px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-203026\" src=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_4-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_4-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_4-500x375.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_4-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_4.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-203026\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"> Tres Puentes West Entry Lobby. <\/span> <em><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Photo courtesy Alexander Severin <\/span><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Such changes to the zoning would allow for parking lots to be transformed into housing, and for senior housing buildings to have a greater mass and height than previously allowed, as well as more street wall articulation.<\/p>\n<p>The building, Tres Puentes, is named after the three neighboring bridges connecting the South Bronx to Manhattan. The project has added two new ground-up buildings to the Mott Haven site of the existing Borinquen Court, originally constructed in 1981. The new eight and eleven story structures are attached at ground level to this existing six-story building, which the architects renovated in 2014. Combined into a campus, these three buildings transform the nearly 0.81-ha (two-acre) site into a home for hundreds of seniors. The design of the buildings energizes both East 138<sup>th<\/sup> Street and Third Avenue by lining the once vacant street wall with entrances to the site\u2019s senior center, health clinic, and pharmacy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_203027\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-203027\" style=\"width: 236px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-203027\" src=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_5-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"236\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_5-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_5-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.constructionspecifier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/AA_TresPuentes_5.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 236px) 100vw, 236px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-203027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"font-size: 9pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\"> Tres Puentes East Garden.
