New “Vintage” Business, Specializing In L.L. Bean Clothes, To Open On Harlow Street In Bangor

While the City of Bangor is working to put the finishing touches on the roadways downtown, in time for the Memorial Day Weekend and parade, the owners of a new business on Harlow Street are putting the finishing touches on their storefront, in time for their expected opening at the end of the month.

Log Jam Vintage will officially open its doors on Friday, May 30th, according to their Instagram Page. 

"COMING SOON:
Putting the last bit of elbow grease into the Log Jam boomhouse and plan to open the Bangor shop Friday, May 30th."

Much like their neighbor, vintage retailer White Lobster Vintage, who opened up shop at 10 Harlow Street in 2022, Log Jam Vintage owners Miriam Davidson and Jeremy Richardson, had been selling vintage items online for years, before falling in love with the historic Pearl building in Bangor, and deciding to open up a literal brick-and-mortar storefront at 8 Harlow Street.

The couple lives in Jonesport, where they recently purchased the Moose Peak Lighthouse. They're currently restoring the space while acting as stewards of this important maritime property.

Essentially, this new business of selling vintage clothes out of a historic building in Bangor will go to benefit another historic property downeast, which kind of tracks with the mission of what vintage retailers do: reuse.
