Throgs Neck: Bronx Peninsula on the East River
Throgs Neck occupies a peninsula jutting into the East River at the eastern edge of the Bronx. Population is around 34,000. The peninsula takes its name from John Throckmorton, who led an English settlement in the area in 1642. The Throgs Neck Bridge, opened in 1961, carries I-295 from the peninsula across the East River to Queens.
The SUNY Maritime College occupies the tip of the peninsula at Fort Schuyler, a 19th-century coastal fortification. The college, founded in 1874, is the oldest state maritime academy in the United States. Sister Fort Totten sits directly across the East River in Queens.
Pelham Bay Park, 2,772 acres and the largest park in New York City, lies north of the neighborhood. The neighborhood has historically held Irish American and Italian American populations along with more recent Hispanic and Caribbean residents.
