Streets of NY

July 17, 2023

Johnny Andon grew up in Bushwick, Brooklyn, right off Myrtle Ave, a neighborhood he describes as a "home to many creatives that people naturally gravitate to." Despite how much the neighborhood has changed over the years, the heart of Bushwick, captured here in these photos, remains the same.

Taken by Andres Norwood and styled by Tori López, Andon poses alongside his close friend Ricky Alvarez in the very neighborhood he calls home, conveying the breadth of their relationship, nurtured through shared experiences in the Willy Chavarria community. For Andon, brands like WILLY put a spotlight on brown individuals and and highlight "the swag that latinos and latinas in Brooklyn have always had," an ethos reflected in the clothes they wear, and although Alvarez is from the West Coast, to Andon, he "fits right in and embodies what Bushwick is all about."
