I love this place! And prices are pretty darn good. In fact, I heard that the owner of The Good Eye (in upper NW DC) often purchases (or purchased, as I understand GE is under new ownership) items from Millennium, take it back to their store, and then mark it up significantly.

Millennium used to be two levels. Now it's a small one level basement shop. Mid-century modern didn't exactly catch on in DC (it has a small loyal niche), but then again, DC isn't paticularly style/art/design/fashion conscious in comparison to other major cities.

Is it just me?--I never feel comfortable going here to look around. I've gone in a few times and feel like they're annoyed I'm there. I ended up leaving.

I'm sorry to see the front of the store painted like that.
Perhaps the rest of the street looks strange, so it might fit in just right.

Wow that seems kind of strange, I have always found the folks at Millennium to be friendly and helpful. And I really dig the orange facade.I didn't know the store existed prior to 1992. Does any one know where it was located?

I don't live in DC anymore, but when I did, I loooooooved this place. Very cramped and pretty small, but good prices and willing to make a deal. They also had (hopefully they still do) a shop dog who sported the latest doggy fashions. A lot of my favorite furnishings were purchased here.
