Urban archaeologists sift wrecks for decorating treasures
Marilyn Hoffman reports on urban archaeology as a decor trend with dealers like Leonard Schechter of Urban Archaeology Limited in New York and Jo McDonald of Wrecking Bar Inc in Dallas who salvage architectural elements from demolished buildings. Collectors buy antique doors, capitals, chandeliers, balusters, and stained glass to repurpose as art, furniture, and display pieces, preserving craftsmanship while fueling a national collecting movement.
