Not much left at this location. The nice sales associate told us that they have moved most of the artifacts to Connecticut.

The store will both buy and accept donations of historic materials. I donated historical materials from a late 1800s townhouse I am renovating in Hoboken. The materials included 2 fireplaces, 3 doors and trim and decorative trim around windows. The store sent a guy to come and pick up the materials. He did that in 2 trips, 1 in December and 1 in January since they did not take all the materials on the 1st trip. Once they processed the materials, they promised to give me a donation form to use as backup for my annual tax filing. After a few weeks passed and I texted and called to check in, I switched over to email. I have since emailed 17 times during the past month to get the donation form and am still waiting.

High-end architectural salvage --- from small decorative items and hardware to large architectural elements and mantles. They both sell and rent items. The “showroom” is comprised of four levels and a back patio. Be aware there are no price tags; visitors are encouraged to take pictures and/or jot down inventory numbers for assistance at the front desk. No elevator.

Great place to visit!! Very interesting artifacts. Wish I had a place big enough to actually shop here!! The management is very accommodating. Bring your walking shoes! 4 floors and a back yard to check out.

Love this place. A designers dream come true! I have to admit that its not your average antique store. A lot of pieces are used by production designers who are borrowing them for TV and movies. But it is definitely a place every interior designer or design novice should visit. Amazing

Not there anymore. There is a number to call, and when you call they will give you another number to call. They apparently moved to a large warehouse in Connecticut but they would not give the address.

This is probably the best place to find amazing vintage and antique pieces in NYC. The owner and staff are a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended!!

A great place to visit, even if you dont plan on making a purchase. the wide variety of unusual things, from crystal doorknobs to entire cars, makes it an unforgettable experience. The organization of the store is a bit disorienting. WARNING: it is almost definitely haunted

Super cool place, lots of floors -- seemed haunted! Cool af! I went with my friend to gov ball, and this place caught my eye on the way! I was very interested in the large selection of old knick knacks and items they had to offer. They even had a floor full of antique statues and bathtubs which was far more interesting that I wouldve guessed!

All I can say is wow. The man at the front desk, think his name was Joe was nice. He helped with various prices. Im a frequent antique shopper all over the Northeast and this place was by far the most cost inflated place I have ever stepped foot in regarding antiques. During my visit I ran into various designers from Manhattan that shopped here for their clients. The prices amazed me since PA and NJ are so close and are antique Meccas at extremely reasonable prices. There was a circa 1950s cast iron sink with no price or tag. The man that was helping me had to reach out to the manager for pricing. She brought a book with some pics, none of which was the same as the item I was looking at. She had absolutely no knowledge of its age, cost, or the fact that it was for a surface mount plumbing fixture since it had no holes. The porcelain coating was scratched and missing small chunks. She randomly quoted a price of $1500. $1500??????? They are all over Craigslist for under $150. This place is such a rip-off. The lady with the little boy haircut doesnt know anything about her business or how to treat its customers. They also quoted me $7500 for a small chandelier that they claimed was bronze. It was a cast brass chandelier. I bought a similar one on eBay for $350 which had all the glass globes intact. This one didnt. If you have any idea of the price of antiques and have a vehicle there is no reason to shop here. Go look around and laugh at the pricing. This place is for people that cant be bothered and send their designers with a driver in their Escalade. Out of my 25 years of antiquing this place has left such a foul taste in my mouth. This is not what antiquing is about and if they had better pricing it would allow younger people to get involved and get an interest to salvage items in this short term, toss out world that we live in. Shame I didnt meet the owner. Im sure he has extensive knowledge and great stories. They need to keep the lady with the little boy haircut in the yard with the statues to rot. $1500. Lol. Thatll be a great story to tell around the camp fire.
