Nor'East Architectural Antiques

It's a Start, and its BIG!

As you can see they started putting up walls today.

This will be our main showroom, the first of 3 buildings that we will be building to replace what we lost.

Finally things are starting to happen!!

Hi Everyone,

Good news all around.  First, as you can see, construction on our new buildings is about to begin.  Here is a picture taken yesterday of our crew installing the radiant heat under our 11,000 s.f. showroom. 

The building that you see in the back is our warehouse that somehow was left untouched by the fire. We consider ourselves very lucky that this buidling survived. It is being used as a temp. showroom until the new one is finished.

Also, inventory, like this load of barnboard, has been arriving daily. 

   

We have started to update our website. www.noreast1.com

This past weekend our staff participated in a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. Together "Team Noreast" raised over $4500, and that number is still climbing!  If anyone would like to sponsor us there is still time.  Just click on this link... http://main.acsevents.org/site/TRpg=team&fr_id=11207&team_id=272136

And last but not least, we have two new mascots!!
As anyone who ever visited our store before the fire knows, Nor'East was home to 3 cats, Jack, Lilly and Caesar.  "The Kids" as I liked to call them were members of the Nor'East family, and they added a unique element to our business.  They loved to greet customers at the door and lead them on a little tour of the showroom.   Sadly, all three died in our fire, and while their loss was devistating, we realize that life, along with business, must go on.  So please allow me to introduce Sophie and Simon.  Both are Maine Coon kittens, and Sophie is directly related to Lilly (which just makes me feel good!)

Well thats it for now...watch the website for updates!! and THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us during this difficult time. 

Best,

Donna

Please Sponsor Us!!

This weekend, the entire Nor'East family will once again be participating in the Amesbury Relay for Life. 

The Relay for Life is an event sponsored by the American Cancer Society. The goal is to raise money for cancer research, patient services and education.  This will be our 5th year participating!!  Each of us has our own personal reason for taking up this cause.  I do it for my mom, who we lost to lung cancer 5 years ago.  John relays for his father and both in-laws.  Won't you please help us reach our goal??? Any amount of money will help, and you can donate it to one of us or the team in general.

  Please Click Here  and donate what you can!!! 

and THANK YOU for your support!

Donna

ps....as far as rebuilding goes, the site work has begun and the footings are in!  If all goes well our first new building should be up in mid-October, and hopefully ready by the end of November.  We plan to start updating our website by the first of next week!!
