While walking thru Downtown Coeur d' Alene as I do most every Saturday I noticed on big business totally gone. That business is the Americantiques Antique Mall that was located in the 200 block of N 4th St. next door to Cisco's Antique Shop. I was, for a moment, saddened that Americantiques was no longer. But some quick research helped to discover that they have not gone out of business, only relocated to a new free standing building further north in Coeur d' Alene.
Americantiques has re-opened their business in the former Rodda Paint store at 6456 N. Government Way across the street from Silver Lake Mall. And that's not all that's new with Amercantiques, as the store has been re-branded going from a traditional antique mall to a full estate sale center. The store has even been re-named as the Americantiques Estate Sales Center. The new store still sells antiques and collectibles just like before but they have also now added other items found at estate sales like furniture, craft items , houseware items , yard items, tools and much much more.
Americantiques Estate Sales Center is having a grand opening thru the entire month of April and their recent ad mentions they plan to update merchandise continually. Americantiques began a couple of years ago in the Silver Lake Mall and moved for about a year to the space Downtown mentioned earlier in the article.
