Aurora's Boutique's new home is 11 3rd St, Troy, NY, located within the Historic Market Block
Building at the point of River & Third St. This glorious
building was built in 1844 & has 3 magnificent ballrooms
all located on the top floor of the building. Throughout the
years, Market Block has been the site of numerous events &
businesses; abolitionist's rallies, formal balls, a pool hall,
a shoe store, a beauty school & assorted restaurants.
Recently purchased by a native Trojan & entrepreneur, John
Hedley, of Hedley Cadillac Oldsmobile Inc., John has renamed
the building to honor another well known & beloved Trojan,
to the "John Scanlon Market Block." Mr. Hedley's
plans are to restore this historical building to it's original
state of grandeur & we, at Aurora's, are excited to be a
participant of his vision.
Aurora's Boutique has evolved from a tiny antique shop,
"Aurora's Willow Creek" into an upscale women's
boutique, specializing in formal wear by Ursula of
Switzerland, gorgeous antique & contemporary jewelry,
colorful purses & hats, romantic lingerie, as well as
Yankee Candles, Victorian lamps & pastel depression
glass....everything a woman would want! We are celebrating our
12th year in business & we extend an open invitation to
visit us when you're sailing up the Hudson or strolling the
streets, soaking up the Victorian ambiance of our gracious
City.
