Home furnishings retailer West Elm opened today its first Maryland location at 1301 Dock St. between Harbor East and Fells Point.

The store had a pre-opening last night and our pal the Charm City Cook, Amy Langrehr, took some pictures inside the store that she shared with us. The 11,377 square-foot store is in the Exelon Building, and the first 300 customers who spend over $50 today will take home a tote bag made designed especially for the Baltimore opening.

West Elm brings approximately 30 jobs to the neighborhood, and as part of West Elm’s LOCAL program, seven Maryland-based makers and designers will sell their products at the store, and a complimentary Design Lab will offer services that support customers in their journey to express their personal style at home.
