Recently, a few of us at Empax took a trip up to Hunts Point. We were guided by Hunts Point Alliance for Children’s Maryann Hedaa and learned a lot about Hunts Point’s history, culture and current state. This eye opening and insightful tour provided us with a lot of intimate details and research for our rebranding and website project.

We can’t show you what we’ve done so far; you’ll just have to wait for the debut! For now, here are select photos from the tour:

Graffiti Mural at Bronx Charter School for the Arts

A beautiful wild style graffiti wall mural along the Bronx Charter School for the Arts.

Baretto Point Park

The recently developed Baretto Point Park along the Bronx River. It houses the floating pool! Unfortunately, the park is surrounded by industrial buildings and a sewage plant.

Mural at the Bronx Charter School for Arts

A more traditional mural also at the Bronx Charter School for the Arts.
