  • Downtown Glendale used to be like the Antique Capital of Arizona!!! It was great having so many great stores to poke around in... Sadly, most of the best stores have folded up and blown away like a dried-up tumbleweed, leaving--well, not much. The old general store/antique store on the last street before hitting Grand Avenue? Empty. Shaboom's? A thing of the past. The really cool store with all the cool old buildings off the main drag where you could find all manners of great rusty items, old doors, farm implements and Moe, Curly and Larry tools [aka ice picks]? Torn down for a lousy parking lot. As a long-time antiquer, I can only say that the USA Today story mentioned by another Yelper was sadly out of date--Downtown Glendale really doesn't have much any more, at least not for serious antique people. Sure, you can find lots of junk store items, shabby chic and a few treasures here and there [I know that my last three holiday gifts have come from Glendale!] but with the advent of Ebay, Antique Roadshow and other such venues that show ordinary people what their stuff is really worth, the era of large antique districts is fading away. So go with low expectations and in anticipation of great Mexican food at La Perla's, and if you find something, more power to you--if not, try Prescott instead. [-sigh]
