Shopping

The Canal District is also home to a growing array of upscale retail shops, many of which make their home in the adjacent Crompton Building, a former loom works dating back to 1860. The Crompton Collective describes itself as “a curated boutique marketplace”, brimming with handmade items and antiques. And you can find other amazing treasures in Seed to Stem a plant and lifestyle boutique whose atmosphere is so intoxicating and serene and you will never want to leave. Across the hall sits the Bedlam Book Cafe, combining curated used books with a real juice and coffee bar with a super cozy atmosphere, often featuring author and poet talks.

In the adjacent building you will find a home décor story called Birch Alley and the vintage pleasures of Alexis Grace Consignment.

Haberdash, located right in Crompton Place, is an upscale and on-trend clothing store featuring locally made jewelry.
