BC Modern, located at 3116 South Chase Avenue in Milwaukee’s Bay View neighborhood, is the city’s largest vintage shop specializing in mid-century modern furnishings and décor. Spanning two floors and 5,000 square feet, the store offers a wide selection of vintage furniture, furnishings, and clothing. Open on the last full weekend of each month from 10 AM to 4 PM, the shop is known for its beautiful layout, design touches, and memorabilia that create a welcoming, home-like atmosphere. Customers praise the store for its unique, reasonably priced pieces and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Visitors often find gems such as rare collectibles, vintage clothing, and décor items perfect for decorating or gifting. The owners are appreciated for their fairness and helpfulness. Many have successfully furnished and decorated their homes with items from BC Modern, enjoying their well-curated selection and the enjoyable shopping experience.
Great selection on mid-century modern items (furniture and accessories). Much of the furniture for sale has been beautifully restored. They are only open one weekend a month, so it is very crowded. Street parking only (do not park is the nearby lots). Very friendly, helpful staff.
