Adaptive Reuse in Bronx, NY at U-Haul Moving & Storage at Grand Concourse
Serving U-Haul customers since 1978, this facility was built through Adaptive Reuse of an abandoned building.

Building History
The Universal Metal Products Inc. building was built in 1928 and U-Haul acquired the property in 1978. Adaptive reuse building conversions allow U-Haul to promote infill development to meet citizens’ needs while preserving the natural resources and land normally required for new construction. Adaptive reuse also allows resources to be focused on integrating environmentally thoughtful features into the existing building rather than creating waste in the form of demolition and using valuable resources for new construction.
