Bottle Recreations by Christina Knapp, Hellow Yellow, Inc.

It all started with the old whiskey bottle found during a renovation...

The bottle, likely left behind by the original builders in 1911, was discovered in the roof of a Mt. Pleasant row house on 19th Street. There is an old tradition where the crew celebrates the completion of the job by leaving the last bottle consumed hidden in the house for someone in the future to discover. In the history section, read more about pre-Prohibition Mt. Pleasant Club Whiskey, William D. Barry and the old bottle found in a row house on 19th Street.
