The Kingsbridge Armory is garnering attention from Washington, with the U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh visiting the site with local electeds.
Walsh came to the west Bronx site as part of a workforce development and readiness tour on Friday alongside U.S. Rep. Adriano Espaillat, whose district encompasses the long-vacant armory. The two national representatives were joined by New York State Commissioner of Labor Roberta Reardon, Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson, City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams and councilmembers Pierina Sanchez and Oswald Feliz.
