lovely shop with older antique furniture items for remodels that you want to stay vintage. Lots of lovely sets of furniture for reasonable prices as well as plentiful stock for a variety to choose from. covid practices are enacted here with social distancing and face coverings

I've perused this established gem on multiple occasions in recent months, and if you are looking for authentic Detroit-area industrial, vintage, and antique curiosities, you absolutely MUST make time for an extended visit to wander the labyrinthine two-floor warehouse. To be sure, the owners know the provenance and rarity of their inventory, thus the prices are not exactly a bargain, but if you are interested in purchasing enough, they may be willing to offer a nominal bundle discount. Be prepared to be overwhelmed by the inadequacy of both your budget and vehicular cargo capacity to accommodate the wealth of items you would wish to leave with. The mall is open only on Saturdays from noon until 5 PM, so it is a perfect addition to a trip to Eastern Market after the vendors there have wrapped up shop. When entering the building's main entrance fronting the Fischer Freeway service drive, remember to push the inner door open after being buzzed in, despite the knob suggesting a pull being required. I've included a picture of a spectacular teal enameled metal shelving unit I pined for during my last visit. If someone grabs it before I do, kudos to you, and I suggest you post your own review with a photo of its new disposition, should you happen by chance to be inspired to buy it due to this post's excessive verbosity!

We came, we saw and we negotiated. This place is excellent for finding original pieces we need to aid our restoration of our 100 year old house. We'll definitely be back.
