Fordham centers on the Grand Concourse and Fordham Road, one of the Bronx's busiest commercial corridors, with six-story Art Deco apartment buildings, prewar walk-ups, and brick rowhomes lining the surrounding residential streets. The B and D trains at Fordham Road, the 4 train on the Jerome Avenue Line, and Metro-North at Fordham Station provide multiple transit options. The New York Botanical Garden's 250 acres and the Bronx Zoo border the neighborhood, and Fordham University's Gothic campus occupies the historic Rose Hill Manor at its center.
