Done deal, Hip Hop now has a real home and you heard it straight from our Bronx Borough President @ruben_diaz_jr "#BronxPoint is a tremendous step forward for our borough. Not only will this project create much-needed affordable housing units, it will activate underutilized space, open up more waterfront to public access, create new public spaces and retail amenities for community use and, finally, bring the Universal Hip-Hop Museum to its rightful location in the birthplace of hip-hop, The Bronx. Hip-hop was born in The Bronx, and the inclusion of the Universal Hip-Hop Museum as part of this project will help showcase our role in the creation of that worldwide cultural movement for generations to come. I congratulate NYCEDC, HPD, the Parks Department, L+M Development Partners and Type A Projects on their tremendous collaboration. This innovative mixed-use development is a model for future projects across the nation, and I am proud to support it." Lastly, from us, special thanks to all who support us and recognizing the real museum of Hip Hop is The Universal Hip Hop Museum. #hiphop #newyork #bronx #official #viral #blessed #rap #fortheculture #hiphophead #peace #love #unity #savehiphop #support #follow #movement #therealdeal #birthplace #winning #makingmoves #dj #producer #dreamscometrue #donate #innovation #dope #worldwide #architecture #uhhm http://bronxboropres.nyc.gov/press/releases/2017-09-22b.html
