Bushwick's Krown Hardware, a decades-old mom-and-pop store, will reopen in a scaled-down space in their former building after facing challenges like arson fires, looting, and the 1977 blackout. Despite selling their property in a lucrative deal, the family ensured a section for the hardware store, emphasizing the importance of community legacy.
The decision to sell 1325 Broadway was driven by competition, burnout, and pandemic impacts, but the new generation, represented by A.J. Adipietro, is committed to preserving the family business. A.J. aims to provide a better store for the community and sustain the family legacy, highlighting his determination and community-oriented approach.
