Bye bye Confessional, Hello CityCoHo and Philly Nexus!

If you you’ve visited our store lately you may have noticed that something was missing. That’s right, the confessional!

confessional 1The re fixture was salvaged from the set of a television show that was shot in Philly, but never aired.  It was great to have in the store because customers always asked about it and it was a good reminder of our mission. This beautiful confessional built from new materials for TV would have been taken apart and sent straight to landfill!  But boy, we’re glad it has found a new home at  2401 Walnut St, inside the new CityCoHo and Philly Nexus co-working space.  confessional philly nexus

Drew and Max in store confessionalWhen Drew and Max came to the re in search of the perfect reclaimed furniture items for their new workplace, they fell in love with the confessional (as many people have!) So they snatched it right up, along with a few other reclaimed items from our store.
