Lego store coming to Westfield Montgomery mall
A Lego store is coming to Westfield Montgomery mall in Bethesda this summer, a representative from the mall confirmed Monday.
Lego, which tells interlocking plastic toys, has retail stores elsewhere in the greater Washington region, including Tysons Corner, Pentagon City and Potomac Mills in Northern Virginia.
Karla Saravia, a mall spokeswoman, said Monday afternoon that construction on the store is just beginning.
“We don’t have a specific date as of this point,” she said of the opening.
Lego replaces the women’s clothing store Patrizia Luca, which will relocate to the mall’s upper level, next to the Apple store, in the next few weeks, Saravia said.
Lego’s tentative arrival in Montgomery County was first reported by Store Reporter.
