Watson Ave is another major thoroughfare through the Bronx River section. As you can see memorials to loved ones are kept close to home. Headache Nelson must have been a very popular and loved young man.

Wow! i really like the memorial murals, they're really unique!

I live on Watson, great pictures. One thing though, Watson is not in Bronx River. This is the Soundview Section of the Bronx. Bronx River is North of Westchester Avenue. Great shots though, I walk by them almost everyday. It's ashame a lot of good murals in the area are being painted over.

I was working in the area the other day and saw these awesome memorials such as Headache Nelson. The artist or artists should be recognized for their beautiful work. How did Headache die??

I think headaches real name was nelson torres if I'm not mistaken. I'm from the Bronx, but I've been living in Toronto for the past six years. I recently visted the Bronx in 2003 and some people in my crew told me that he got stabbed. If that is nelson torres, then that's a dude that I went to school with up until maybe eith grade. R.I.P.

One more thing, I think the guy in the first picture was a dude named Lance. If that is Lance then my brother older brother went to school with him. R.I.P. Watson all day!!!!
