Westin Hotel and High End Retail Coming to Harbor Point
The Baltimore Business Journal reported that H&S properties is planning a 280 room Westin Hotel as part of their Harbor Point project adjacent to Harbor East. The article also seems to confirm that the developers will be courting a high end department store, possibly Barneys, to anchor the retail portion of the project. Previous rumors suggested that H&S was also courting Neiman Marcus. With this news, it seems that the Southeast side of the harbor could become the new mecca for shopping in Baltimore, desperately needed since the decline of Howard street over the past few decades.

I’ve also heard that Whole Foods is going to be moving from their current location to this new one…
Rumor has it that Whole Foods was looking to build a bigger location across Central Ave. (currently occupied by the H&S bakery distribution warehouse) or across Fleet St. (currently vacant). I just saw some construction fence go around the building across Fleet from Whole Foods. No definite ideas as of yet.
I for one would love to see Neiman Marcus and Barneys in Baltimore because the one thing I’ve noticed since I was forced to move here was that there is no good shopping.
