Where can I find architectural salvage or historic house parts?
Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore offers quality used and surplus building materials at a fraction of retail prices. Visit http://www.gchfh.org/donating/index.asp for details. Many antique shops such as the ones on Cleveland’s Lorain Avenue and Larchmere Boulevard often have salvage and parts. For quality reproduction house parts, Old House Interiors’ Design Center at http://www.oldhouseinteriors.com/designcenter/magazine.html maintains a portal to many vendors. Also be sure to check out Old House Journal at http://www.oldhousejournal.com/index.shtml and Period Homes at http://www.period-homes.com/ for more resources.
