Black Dog Salvage

Se""Black Dog Salvage in Roanoke is an incredible,
 40,000 square-foot warehouse that features 
a stunning variety of antiques, 
commercial salvage and countless other unique items.
"As a marketplace, the warehouse contains original works from reclaimed materials as well as many products from a wide range of merchants and artists who rent space in the facility. Featured on the popular television show Salvage Dawgs on the DIY Network, Black Dog Salvage has become known around the country as a leader in the remodeling industry for its outstanding work and creativity in various building, design and salvage projects."
I have watched them for some time.
It is fun to see the stories of the rescues
 of materials out of old homes and buildings.
So when I heard we were headed
 to Roanoke, Virginia for a conference-
this was top on the list.
The Stone House is being renovated
 right next door as a luxury vacation rental.

Salvage greets you-
 right at the entrance to the parking lot.
Most of the inside is carefully curated stalls - 
mostly by individual dealers.
But, there is plenty of 
Black Dog Salvage scattered here and around.
Interesting things and fun to look at displays.


I saw this beautiful window
 and then happened to see an instagram post 
that it was purchased and being sent to California-
 Hopefully to a great new home!
Black Dog Salvage was created in 1999 to provide a home for Southwestern Virginia’s architectural past. The brainchild of entrepreneurs Mike Whiteside an
d Robert Kulp and inspired by Molly, Black Dog’s namesake.

A sunset over the mountain
 ends a perfect day in Roanoke, Virginia.
