The Jipp serves not only as our office, but a place to tell the story of
the Jipp's place in the Hamburg Historic District, the neighborhood
resource center, and the home of our
Architectural Rescue Shop.
The shop is used to collect, preserve, restore, and display
architectural items from other vintage houses being renovated or
demolished in the Quad Cities. The
profits from the sale of these items
are used to help in the restoration of this
and other abandoned homes in our neighborhood.
November 16, 2011
The Architectural Rescue Shop
is now open
Fridays from 10AM to 3PM
or by
appointment or chance.
