WEST ELM OPENS IN SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS JUNE 30

Home furnishings retailer West Elm today announced its new store opening in San Antonio’s Pearl District on Thursday, June 30 at 10 a.m., bringing approximately 30 jobs to the area. The 11,000-square-foot-store is housed in a revitalized warehouse across from the thriving Pearl Brewing district, a 16-block pedestrian-friendly cultural redevelopment neighborhood. West Elm’s seventh Texas store features the brand’s unique fall assortment for modern living, a selection of Texas made goods, and a signature Design Lab with complimentary design services.
