Lost City Antiques — Discover Treasures from the Good Ol’ Days
ongratulations to Lost
City Antiques for celebrating their grand
opening Wednesday, Nov.
19, at 5:30 p.m.! You’re
invited to join them in celebrating this exciting event!
Lost City Antiques is
located at 1519 Park St.
and run by owner David
George along with more
than 20 dealers/vendors.
Some of the vendors are
well-established and have
been there for more than
15 years.
The stately brick building that houses Lost City
Antiques has been used
as an antique store under
several different ownerships for the past 30 years
(including Park Street
Antiques). But the building
itself is much older than
that — it was built in 1897,
most likely as a mercantile.
Today, the immense
building showcases three
levels packed with an amazing assortment of antiques,
collectibles, and vintage
clothing:
The Main Floor contains
a large number of glass
display cases that hold
every collector’s favorites,
from an extensive assortment of vintage jewelry and
pocket watches to a collection of ephemera and other
bric-a-brac.
You can stroll down the
aisles and open spaces
throughout the floor to
find antique lighting and
furniture from the Victorian,
Art Deco, Mid-Century, and
Arts & Crafts eras. There
are a number of rooms
and alcoves that also feature assortments of old
tools, classic bikes, vintage
clocks and much more.
In addition, you might
find Italian and French
collectibles alongside an
assortment of other collections — from tea cups,
vintage magazines, and
kitchenware, to kitsch and
tiki items from the 50s
onward. Lost City even has
a book room!
The Upper Floor is where
you will find a huge selection of clothes and accessories, including vintage
and contemporary styles.
