The scene inside the high-ceilinged Northeast Portland warehouse looks like a hybrid between a rummage sale and Home Depot.
Scattered across the warehouse are windows, cabinets, bathtubs, toilets and a host of other salvaged items. Even home appliances and furnaces have a place on the lot.
A ray of sunlight shines in overhead through a skylight. The skylight, from the penguinarium at the Oregon Zoo, was donated like every other item in the warehouse.
