Next time you need construction materials, check out Construction Junction in Pittsburgh's Point Breeze. Construction Junction is "Pittsburgh's only non-profit building material reuse retailer." They accept donations of new or used building materials and resell to the public. Items available include windows, doors, flooring, hardware, cabinetry, etc., with new materials added frequently.
Construction Junction also hosts a large recycling center for materials including cardboard. When I visited this weekend I found exciting pieces from a church deconstruction, including pews and statues.

Harry Levine Architect checking in.
Hi Harry! We'd love to hear your comments about the "Pittsburgh Steeler" house you designed for Jeff Walz which was featured in Dwell! What did you love about the house . . . what was the coolest material you used in the house . . .what lessons could the average modern-loving, hope-to-someday-renovate-my-bungalow-style-home blogger learn from this house?
