Bronx Native
Description
This carefully curated Mott Haven shop is straight out the ’90s, with items like quarter waters for sale that will make you nostalgic for simpler times. Merchandise includes Bronx Native snapback hats, MTA card pins and hoodies that read “Bodega Dreams” in all caps. The interior is an extension of the shop’s surroundings, featuring graffitied walls and street signs. Run by a brother and sister duo, Bronx Native also functions as a community-organizing collective, promoting and bringing together local artists and entrepreneurs.
