This place is so well curated and the owner is so very friendly and easy to talk too. It is so nice to meet people that are truly passionate about what they do. If you are at all close to Andersonville, this place is a must stop.
When they say this place is 80,000 square feet, they mean 80,000 square feet. Give yourself most of the day to take a look around this place. If you are going to re-do your kitchen or bathroom looking at the tables and tables of antique painted tiles is a must. The patterns are just breath taking. Also, there are multiples of things - like a 5ft wide bin filled with wooden block letters and the 9ft table covered in glass chandelier parts.
Another HUGE warehouse shop with a wide variety of large industrial pieces and large scale art instillations. This place will make you wish that you just lived in and abandoned warehouse so you can fill it with everything in this place. If you go, make it all the way to the 3rd floor to check out the wide variety of clawfoot bathtubs and vintage doctors examination tables. Check out their Insperation page for some great outdoor photos.
Great mix of vintage and local artists. Not to mention that they carry a wide variety of Unison Bedding.
Ok, so I didn't make it to this store, but it's on my list for next time.
Their website says, "Urban Remains deals exclusively in the reclamation and recycling of American antique architectural artifacts found among commercial and industrial buildings or residential structures. Our collection of recovered artifacts dates between the mid-19th century and the late 1930's." Looking through their product catalog makes me giddy with excitement.
