A $349M public-private investment in Bronx, N.Y. set to house the Universal Hip Hop Museum in the borough where the music genre started, also adds 3 acres of public esplanade and park space sorely needed in the community.

Bolstered by new funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the EPA has awarded $254 million in new and supplemental brownfield grants to 265 communities across the country.

The project builds 850,000-sq-ft of affordable housing, outdoor space and mixed usage on Hunts Point.
