Tremont Avenue is a street in the Bronx, New York City. Its west end is at Matthewson Road at Roberto Clemente State Park in Morris Heights, which then becomes a step street after Cedar Avenue. At the top of the step street at Sedgwick Avenue it continues east, and its east end is at Schurz Avenue in Throggs Neck, running almost the entire width of the Bronx.
