Set aside at least a few hours to navigate this sprawling antiques mall, filled with furniture, dishware, jewelry, housewares, knickknacks, and innumerable other relics from the past, with a special focus on the '50s.

This former 1940s Ford dealership is filled with a multi-vendor mix of architectural, industrial, and repurposed treasures; vintage art; and collectibles. There's even an outpost of the Comfort Coffee Co. on the premises, with drinks and snacks so you can refuel for more treasure hunting. The main building, filled with unique and well-curated antiques and loaded with character, is only the beginning at the 8th Street Market; little houses in the back are packed with even more hidden gems.
