Founded in the South Bronx in 1974 as a coalition of volunteers determined to save their community from the overwhelming incidents of arson, disinvestment, and abandonment, Mid Bronx Desperadoes (MBD) has been instrumental in the rebuilding of the Crotona Park East neighborhood in the South Bronx. To date, MBD has successfully constructed and renovated over 2,300 units of housing. In addition, MBD developed the construction of the New Horizons Retail Center, which has created over 200 full-time and part-time permanent jobs.
