The Shakespeare is centrally located near the intersection of Shakespeare Avenue and West 170th Street in the Bronx, allowing easy access to the many attractions, parks and shopping the area has to offer, as well as nearby Manhattan. The area has recently been enhanced by the new Yankee Stadium, the Bronx Museum of the Arts and the development of several successful charter schools, making the neighborhood a vibrant and inspiring place to live. Residents also benefit from proximity to three parks, including 127-acre Crotona Park, featuring a lake, swimming pool, tennis courts, and several playgrounds.
