The staff is welcoming and the receptions are well managed. This week I attended a performance by the artist Vanessa German and it was a terrific event. The gallery supported Vanessa's idea for writing a series of poems for individuals in the community. On social media she requested"ingredients" for the poem and at the gallery Vanessa read each poem to the person after they came forward and sat in a chair. Parking can be tricky, as Braddock Ave can get busy, however I usually can find a space.

At first this place was amazing I loved Bidding and getting my items but recently I don't know if…read moresomeone else has taken over but I was very saddened and annoyed with my last and final experience. I won a few things and usally I'm told with in 24 hours when to pick up my items on a following day. I didn't get a message on my email till 9:56 am the next day telling me to pick up that very day between 10 am and 2 pm. I was shocked because I usally get a message telling me I have a day or two to get a truck or car ready. I didn't see this message unfortunately until after work and by then everyone was gone. I called upset and no one answered or returned my call. I left messages no called back. I then emailed them and received a message stating Tuesday would be the next day. So I told my husband. Tuesday came and I called to confirm pick up. The nice woman told me that they wouldn't be at thier Allentown location on Warrington until Sat June 4 th at 10 till 2 pm. I was frantic because we had a wedding that day and the item we bought was a table and we needed a truck. So I tell my husband to rent a truck and to get there at 10 on the dot because we had prior engagement at 12 pm. So my husband goes to the building where he's always driven me with a truck that cost us $$$$ to rent for the day. And wouldn't you know it no one was there....I was shocked disappointed and mad. He waited for a while left to change for the wedding and came back 15 min later...still no one he rang the buzzer and no one called no one answered. Very upset he left with a truck we now had no use for. So now for a table that was only gonna cost us 40$ and a Pyrex set for 20 some bucks we are out of pocket lost 100 some dollars for this truck and 60-80 bucks for items we never where able to get receive. I'm just so upset by this. The odd thing too was they called my place of work not my phone when they found out what had happened. Kept my boss on the phone for a while and he informed me they where very rude to him which ended up getting me into trouble at work, which was not a fun thing to walk into at work was my boss upset because he said his time was wasted. So this whole nightmare of an experience was not something I expected. Once my husband got a hold of someone today instead of being understanding and apologetic he got a rude argumentive response. They fought tooth and nail to say we where in the wrong. It's 60-80 some odd dollars and we've wasted all this time for that? We just wanted our money back but now we have to wait till the end of the week which is ridiculous. The only reason I'm even giving 2 stars was because prior to this nightmare Doug the owner was very nice to me when I bought other items prior to this. I don't know who's running it currently but it's not Doug.

I had always heard of people in my department saying that they would "check surplus" before…read morepurchasing things like office furniture elsewhere. I finally understand how and why when I took a field trip to surplus myself. Essentially, it's a warehouse of furniture, electronics, cars, antiques, and other random things like faux plants that are no longer in use by the university. Once removed from university grounds, they are taken to this warehouse in Point Breeze and sold for cheap or auctioned off to the general public or university personnel. When I went there, there were several types of chairs including theatre chairs, tables, and more. I recently bought a 19" Dell monitor for $25.00. I was told to just bring the monitor back if I had any issues and they'd just replace. The monitor works perfectly. Office chairs ranged from about $20-60. Larger items like old university cars are auctioned off. It's a really cool place and you'd be really surprised by what you find especially the price! Once I move into my new apartment, I plan to go back to surplus to see what I can find. Because why break the bank with all new furnishings?!?!

They have cubbies when you walk in to store all of your things. The staff is very friendly! We went for open play time but I see online they have a ton of other more structured classes for all age ranges. Definitely recommend this place! PS there's a small parking lot too!
