North Shore Architectural Antiques specializes in regional historic building elements from the 1850as to the 1950as. Our region at the western end of Lake Superior, centered around Duluth, Minnesota and Superior, Wisconsin was primarily developed during the late 1800as and early 1900as and the architecture reflects the strong Victorian, Art & Crafts, and early Art Deco styles. Our inventory includes a wide range of materials for use by restoration and remodeling contractors, do-it-yourselfers, and interior decorators and designers.

This place was really interesting to stop in and see. I am an architecture student so it was neat to see some history up close and personal. I actually went to grab some doorknobs for my place and the guy working was teaching me about what was wrong with the ones at my place! Very friendly, very helpful, and stopped me from accidentally buying doorknobs that wouldn't work for my door. Haha.

No sense of how to be polite to someone walking in the door wearing a mask, per their own restrictions. Edit for response: Wow, now you're making up a story that didn't happen. Not once did I pull down my mask, and if you're not aware the cdc changed their guidelines, which are just that, guidelines, not laws, so that restriction is on you not them.
I walked in and without a hello, how are you, thanks for coming in, excuse me, could you please, or anything pleasant at all, you said, "hey! pull your mask up fully over your nose or just go ahead and leave." I wasn't even in the store more than thirty seconds.

Great store with a really eclectic collection of antiques. If you want service or smiling faces you can forget about that here. The sales person who was on duty when I was there was standoffish and seemed more suspicious than courteous. Hmmm maybe I will go to another store next time I am in town. Who knows maybe they just don't like strangers. That seems like a bad idea in a tourist town. Oh well.

A ton of cool stuff, but too expensive for me. I was told they do purchase things from private parties but they pay salvage rate, 10 cents on the dollar. Knowing that, I really wouldn't pay those prices, unless they had a must-have item. Side note: I am pretty thrifty. So my expensive might be your steal.
