Fordham

Fordham anchors around the bustling Fordham Road shopping strip and its namesake university. The area buzzes with commerce — sneaker shops, discount stores, and Dominican restaurants line the main drag. Fordham University's leafy campus provides a stark contrast to the surrounding streets.
