We met a couple at Salvage Fest in NY in August and were very intrigued by what they were doing. They have created a Market Place around their Architectural Salvage business, Silver Fox Enterprises www.silverfoxenterprises.com.
Albany’s only year-round Multi Functional Market within the city boundaries offers year round indoor space designed for specialty foods, crafts and antique vendors. A significant portion of the warehouse will support the architectural salvage business which will be dispersed throughout the market adding to its ambiance. They have vendors for the Café, Bakery, and specialty teas, that create an atmosphere for the public to relax, shop and explore. And a Dance studio that offers space for creative expression.
During the warmer months, the market expands outdoors to include a Farmer’s Market, Antiques & Crafts, and garden statuary. Individual shelters are constructed to enhance the permanence of the venue, eliminate the look of a “tent city,” and ease the set-up process. Under consideration include plans to host small festivals such as Medieval fairs, “Llama Days”, and Antique car shows. Additional ideas are always welcome for discussion.
