Formstone, that funky faux rock, was "invented" in 1938 by Albert Knight, and intended only for remodeling suburban homes. It wasn't until the late 1940s and 1950s that it began appearing en masse throughout Baltimore's neighborhoods. Little by little, entire blocks of brick-front rowhomes were covered with a layer of concrete skin - transforming into our beloved "little castles."

A few years before that, Eddie's opened the doors to our first location in Roland Park. Since then, we've been providing exceptional service and hard-to-find products to our loyal customers. When you care so much about what you do, it's hard to "cover up" your true self.

Fashion runs in cycles, and while many were tearing it down a few years ago, Formstone is hot again today. It's even accenting the set designs of John Waters' "Hairspray" in Manhattan!
