Found a massive pile of old kitchen and bathroom materials from a remodel illegally dumped on City of Austin land — does anyone recognize this hand-painted tile?
Took my dogs out for a walk this evening on some undeveloped City of Austin land next to my house in Northeast Austin near Loyola Rd and came across what looks like a commercial truck’s worth of materials from a kitchen/bath demolition just dumped out there. Unfortunately dumping isn’t uncommon in this part of town, but this is just ridiculous.

The main photo is some very cool looking hand-painted Spanish-style tile with a red border that came out nearly in one large piece. Also a lot of turquoise floral border tiles that seem also quite nice. Long shot but it seems like pretty recognizable tile.

There’s also smashed granite countertop with a silver pull-down faucet still attached, decent looking vinyl plank flooring, a glove, doorknobs that still look pretty new, a jet bath tub with a piece of piping dating it to December 2012, funky lighting fixtures, nice vintage cabinet doors. The house this came from seems like an older place with character that had been lovingly kept up. And based on the way everything is still layered, it looks like it slid straight out of the back of a tilting trailer. If anyone recently had work done or recognizes any of this from someone else's older cool house… I may have found where it ended up. And if they did it out here, they’re probably doing it somewhere else in the city too. I am pretty hungover so I didn’t dig through the pile much, but there are probably mor
