New (sort of) Salvager Opens in Philly

American Soil http://www.americansoil.net/ has opened an architectural salvage store in Philly called Provenance at 1610 Fairmount Ave., (215) 236-6677. While it's a new store, American Soil has been in the salvage business, among others, for a while, hence my "sort of" in the headline. On American Soil's website, click on "architectural salvage." Presently, they're selling treasures from Philadelphia's landmark Divine Lorraine Hotel. I don't think Provenance has been open very long as it was never on Architectural Salvage News' radar before I saw an article about Provenance in Philadelphia Weekly. http://www.philadelphiaweekly.com/view.php?id=13214. With as much architectural history as the City of Brotherly Love has, I've always been surprised that there aren't more architectural salvage retailers doing business here. Looks like that is starting to change. Best wishes for much success!
