In 2000 when my ex husband and I were Rehabbing an old house we discovered that there are tons of Architectural salvage stores in the city of Saint Louis Missouri. They’re all over the place and the prices are usually very reasonable.
Thanks for posting this salvage info. I love shopping architectural salvage! I bought a sweet little fireplace mantel at such a place for my 1940s cottage.
Where at the Shore? Any place in particular that you could recommend? I’m here at the Shore as well. Exit 105 GSP. Thanks so much!!
Just a little FYI, I moved down here in 1971, just starting high school at Shore Regional.
My mother was a ruthless antique hunter. Ocean Avenue at that time was all gigantic mansions from the sea wall in Monmouth Beach to Long Branch. You should have seen the stuff my mom got out of those old homes!!!! Good times.
A lot of urban renewal in that area. Any of the shore communities in Cape May County are great for demo sales, and bulk trash days, too. Sales are usually advertised in the Shoppe, Cape May County Herald and AC Press.
