"We've been up in Seattle for over 20 years, so we're pretty embedded there," says Earthwise Architectural Salvage owner Kurt Petrauskas, who expanded to Tacoma last summer. "Tacoma's got a great history. It's actually older than Seattle. I think Tacoma has the market. I think people will appreciate what we do down here, as they do up in Seattle. Everybody who comes in the store really enjoys it and likes it, so we're starting to gain a little bit of traction in the area. I think the more people realize we are here, the more encompassing the clientele will be. I know they're here. There are very creative people in Tacoma." (PHOTO BY TODD MATTHEWS)
