Daniel Jundef // C&A Iron Works

JL;DR SUMMARY Daniel Jundef has taken the helm of C&A Iron Works, a business rooted in Borough Park, after being inspired by and stepping into the shoes of his late brother.

Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
