Founded in 1981, the Kingsbridge-Riverdale-Van Cortlandt Development Corporation/KRVC is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization that supports local programs and initiatives that seek to build, develop, improve and beautify the communities of the Northwest Bronx. KRVC’s cultural program, launched in 2012, is a Bronx-wide initiative that brings concerts and artistic performances, presentations and events to all the communities throughout the Bronx. In 2016, KRVC opened a small storefront space along a commercial corridor at 505 West 236th Street in the Northwest Bronx. The space was rebranded as 505BX in the spring of 2019 to serve as a much-needed community space for co-working, small events, workshops and meetings. 505BX features Gallery 505 - a small, pop-up art gallery for Bronx artists - and serves as the primary work and event space for KRVC and our other projects. In 2022, KRVC launched two new projects, KRVC Productions and 4Bronx. KRVC Productions has already produced an award-winning film. 4Bronx is a community service project devoted to help low-income Bronx families , small businesses, the LGBTQIA+ community and more.
