Argo expands management portfolio into the Bronx.


Argo Management, a division of The Argo Corporation, a full-service real estate firm based in Manhattan, has expanded its portfolio with the award of two significant developments located in the Bronx.

The two new accounts are Fordham Hill Oval, a 1,200-unit cooperative comprising nine buildings on a beautiful 12-acre campus in the University Heights University Heights, city (1990 pop. 14,790), Cuyahoga co., NE Ohio, a residential suburb E of Cleveland; inc. 1925. It is the seat of John Carroll Univ.  section; and The Windsor Apartments, a two-building cooperative development on 16 acres with more than 300 units in Riverdale, next to bucolic Wave Hill Park.

Both developments offer rental units, in addition to the cooperative apartments, and feature a housing mix of studio through three-bedroom residences, many with panoramic pan·o·ram·a

"The time was right for Argo to expand its reach into other boroughs," points out Lynn Whiting, director of management for Argo. "We have successfully managed many large-scale developments in Queens and New Jersey for decades, along with luxury cooperatives and condominiums in Manhattan. These assignments in the Bronx are natural segues for our team."

The Windsor Apartments feature a wide array of desirable amenities, including landscaped pool, toddler's pool, children's playground, pstunning Hudson River Hudson River

"Both developments require a great deal of staffing and have landscaped grounds that need constant maintenance," adds Whiting.

"But Argo certainly has the expertise to manage developments of this scale, and with the same dedication and service we provide to our luxury cooperatives and condominiums in Manhattan."
