At the Corner of C Street and Baxter Street in South Boston
It’s no longer your grandmomma’s Southie.
Or your momma’s either.
The latest retail development: Iron Works South Boston. More info from the team there about their mission and independent vendors below:
The C Street Pop Up @ Iron Works is located at the corner of C & Baxter Streets. With a focus on inclusive, local and diverse retailers, the outdoor Pop Up will offer bespoke dry goods, food and beverage in eight custom-built, sustainably-crafted kiosks.
The Wild One will bring a floral-filled setting to the mix, along with a robust beverage menu. EBO & Co offers a wide variety of food choices as well, along with a curated mix of 6 additional retailers offering everything from handcrafted jewelry to original art. Outdoor games such as corn hole and a variety of seating areas will complement the retail offerings and provide a range of activities for families, neighbors, and visitors alike.
A collaboration between National Development, owner of Iron Works, UpNext, a pop-up retail consultancy, and OpBox, constructor of sustainable retail kiosks, the C Street Retail Pop Up Village welcomes the local and Greater Boston community in to socialize, sip and shop a variety of hand crafted products. C Street Retail Village will be open this summer and fall Wednesdays through Fridays from 4-8pm and Saturday and Sunday from 12-8pm. It is located in the parking lot across from PKL.
