BEST ARCHITECTURAL SALVAGE

1315 Tyler Street NE
Minneapolis
(612) 789-1680

Their business card reads "Architectural Elements and Other Cool Stuff," and that's just what you get--everything from claw-foot tubs and old lamps to antique music stands and candlesticks. They've got doors, and they've got doorknobs. Stained-glass windows. Furniture. Pianos, even. All in a low-key, unintimidating setting. The place has been open a little more than a year, reports co-owner Scott Rogers when we interrupt him singing along to piped-in bluegrass as he works the register. "Tell a friend," Rogers says as we leave. So we are. Now go there.
