At the Villa

California · USA · Hotel

The building was Riverside's original mercantile, put up around 1890. Objects move, and things disappear and turn up later somewhere else.

This antiques shop stands a block north of the Mission Inn at 3563 Main Street in Riverside, California, in a building from around 1890 that was the town's original mercantile.

Objects move on their own. Things vanish and reappear later in a different place.

An antiques shop is a peculiar setting for this and the best possible one. The entire stock is other people's belongings, brought in from houses whose owners have died, and the staff know every item and where it was put, because that is the job.

A general store was also the centre of a town like this. Everybody came through it, credit was kept in a ledger, and news moved across the counter.

Riverside grew rich on navel oranges, and the Mission Inn down the road is one of the strangest buildings in California.

The shop is open.
