I recently attended a meeting here for a corporate event at this great venue. First of all I must let you know that everything here from the lamp shades, to the sculpted designs to the flooring is recylcled and salvaged into worable and beautiful works of art. I really like that they are 100 percent green and also have some of the best amazing designs and architecture Ive seen. The designers really transform these used materials into something wonderful and usable.
They have two floors here and our event was held on the second floor. The decor was so inviting and truly unique, they also had amazing lighting and array of very cool modern and contemporarry furniture that matched our event prefectly. They also have a store, which I believe is on the first floor were you can buy the furnishings and decoration, as well as a website, were they sell their amazing furnisinghs. I would recommend this place for a meeting as it was trully unique and beatuful and the people workin the event were all very nice and kind. Five stars!

My cousin was married at Salvage One, my favorite part of the event was the atmosphere. Salvage One is in the business of selling old artifacts so the building had a lot of interesting rustic items featured around the shop area. The wedding itself was held in the courtyard. It was a medium sized wedding and was able to accommodate the ~100 people there. I am a big fan of architecture so the building itself, and it being located to other old buildings was a fantastic sight. The staff working there were very helpful and knowledgeable about the artifacts. I had an excellent time and would recommend the venue to anyone looking to have a memorable medium sized wedding in a beautiful location that everyone can appreciate.
