MD Architectural Rescue

MD Architectural Rescue Documenting the Obsession of a Junk Minded Idiot With a Great Eye for Design and a Knack for Sniffin It couldn't have been more true.

When I was a kid, my mom said "When you grow up you're going to be a JUNK MAN." I started as a savior to the mantles and doors that were being ripped out of Baltimore town homes and thrown into the dumpster and I have grown that passion into a monster of a business. Now, with my company MD Architectural Rescue, I hope to sensibly preserve and recycle history, salvaging classic furniture, industria

l materials and curiosities directly from sites facing demolition. If you're interested in our junk, you could always come visit us at our warehouse, which is an old trolley repair facility near the Baltimore Zoo. Typically the warehouse is open on Saturdays, but we are occasionally open on other days and by appointment. We also sell smaller objects on our two Ebay accounts (architecturalrescue and MDindustrialsalvage). With this page we hope to draw your attention to the oddities we've been digging up and hopefully entice you into taking home your very own piece of history.

They come in THREES .................... I Hope.

Last Sunday during House of Dragons, A large portion of a tree top fell through my living room roof.

Yesterday morning I went out to find a tree branch shattered my work van windshield. At least that one had been cracked already but theres no ignoring it now, I have to fix it.

Today on the way into work, I lost the exhaust on my "good car". I say "lost but its more like I drug it around being smiled at for 45 minutes due to lack of tools.

Nothing but my wallet was hurt. I'm just mentally fatigued though sooooooooooooooooooo

No OPEN HOUSE this month. I've gotta a lot of personal work to catch up on around the house all of a sudden.

As always, I appreciate everyones support and I look forward to seeing y'all in the beginning of Sptember.

A funny thing happened. I've been working so hard that I forgot what day it was and thought last Saturday was the SECOND SATURDAY of the month. OOPS!

Maybe I will see some of your NEXT Saturday for the actual Second Saturday of the month. Sorry about the confusion.

It seems surreal in a way. I"m ALMOST settled in after moving my office from Millersville to the warehouse. It was a 3 week blur . Now I just have an even Bigger pile of history to deal with. I can't believe the stuff we were finding stretching back 15 years. Signs and artifacts from Bethlehem Steel, Bank bags and bar pans from Hershey, porcelain glove molds from Playtex. Advertising displays and signs from RJ Loock. Forgotten furniture from Norristown State Hospital. Of course ..................... most of it is buried in a sea of pallets crammed in the back but I am unraveling a little more each day. I'll try to have some of the cooler stuff accessible by Saturday , which is our SECOND SATURDAY OPEN HOUSE. Saturday May 9th from 10 until 3.

We are located at the Baltimore Traction Company, 2480 Druid Hill ave , just South of the park.

We Hope to See Y'all!
