Forbes Design Center coming to downtown Bethesda

A Baltimore County window and door retailer is expanding to downtown Bethesda. Forbes Design Center will open a new showroom at 7613 Wisconsin Avenue, on the same block as the former Claire Dratch boutique.

Forbes currently has a location in Lutherville, an upscale area north of Baltimore. While Montgomery County has failed to attract any new major corporate headquarters for two decades, a niche of high-end home and interior design businesses has organically sprung up in downtown Bethesda, in particular along Wisconsin Avenue. This is partly due to the tremendous number of home renovations and teardowns occurring across Bethesda and Chevy Chase since the turn of the century.

    This is great news. I bet they even offer glass coffee table top replacements if someone gets slammed into a glass coffee table.

    Lutherville is next to Towson, which recently lost its Barnes & Noble after a new cineplex there failed to revive the area as its developer had promised.

    8:05am when we finally get a theater again, I'm pretty sure your favorite councilman will take credit and you'll drop to your knees to praise him.

  5. Bethesda should be promoted that way. "We don't need no stinkin blockbuster theater. We're amazing."
