Giving Classic Bronx Flats the Upgrade They’ve Earned
Morris Park is real Bronx living: tight-knit blocks where everybody waves, the smell of fresh semolina bread drifting from Morris Park Avenue, and front stoops that still get used every night in summer. Your flat should feel just as solid and welcoming. Yet most of the pre-war walk-ups and 1950s brick co-ops around Sackett, Neill, and Van Nest are still running on 1940s plumbing, kitchens barely big enough for one cook, and bathrooms that haven’t seen a refresh since the Yankees were in the World Series every year.
For over 37 years, Zicklin Contracting has been the flat renovation contractor Morris Park families call when it’s finally time to stop making do and start loving every square foot.
We Know Morris Park Buildings Better Than Most
We’ve gutted six-room classics on Yates Avenue, opened chopped-up railroad flats off Williamsbridge Road, and modernized corner units with views of the 5 train rolling past. We know the thick brick walls that laugh at regular drills, the cast-iron stacks you’re not allowed to move, and exactly how detailed the boards at Parkside Gardens, 1900 Pelham Parkway co-ops, or the smaller six-family buildings want their alteration packages. Our crews have carried new hardwood up four flights on Holland Avenue at sunrise and installed windows that finally quiet the buses on Boston Road while saving every original plaster arch.

How It Really Goes Down in Riverdale Buildings
Free In-Home Consultation – We come to your flat after work or on Saturday, measure everything, and listen to how your family actually lives.
