The dilapidated two-story building on the north side of Fort Worth hardly looked like the ideal spot for a boutique furniture store when Megan McDonald first drove by. The metal awning was falling down, the floors had been ripped up and the ceiling was rotted. “It was a dump,” admits McDonald, whose parents, Natalie and Jack, own Into the West Design.

Into The West, the western-chic home furnishings and decor store is making its grand entrance to the heart of boot-scootin’ rodeos and cattle-herding territory — landing its second locale in the 1410 N. Main St. historic building.

Now, the family-owned shop is setting up a headquarters and showroom in a historic North Main spot. Within roping distance of the Fort Worth Stockyards, the reborn Into the West building — shuttered since the ’50s — was a shadow of its turnof-the-century self.
