STOREFRONT: Monroe St. Bridge Antiques out-Metro Furniture In

On North Monroe the decades long battle between antique stores and bail bond shops rages on.  But in what may represent the changing face of the corridor an old antique business is being overhauled and retrofitted.  Monroe St. Bridge Antiques closed for good recently after about 16 years in business.  Now the owners Chris and Tery Garras are ramping up the for the opening of Metro Home Furniture On Consignment.

The family-run business in the family-owned building (since 1948) are setting their sites on the consignment of good quality, affordable furniture.  Through research and careful study of trends in other urban markets they realized there was a solid amount of unmet demand for the niche here in Spokane.  For the grand opening on 3/11 you can expect two of the three rooms full of items with the third to come online within a month.  Oh, and as for the two upstairs floors they plan on renovation, but for now they're happy to wait and see how things develop around them.
