Four New Leases at Dulles Town Center

DULLES, VA-The three-year-old, 1.4 million-sf Dulles Town Center mall has expanded shopping options for customers in its newest addition, “the Nordstrom Wing,” with the recent opening of three new retail outlets as well as a plan for an additional store opening next year. The latest offerings at the Dulles Airport area shopping center are Ann Taylor Loft, Sharper Image, and Bombay KIDS. Swedish apparel store Hennes & Mauritz will open up in a 21,000-sf space in the spring of 2003. Further terms of the lease agreements have not been released, and mall developer and co-owner Lerner Corp. was unavailable for comment on mall rents.

“The new leasing activity together with Nordstrom, will provide a varied upscale shopping alternative to our clientele,” Lerner senior leasing agent Victor Ambrosio says. “The arrival of the new retailers reinforce the look and feel we had in mind and H & M will deliver an added fashion dimension to the existing mix.” Nordstrom opened its 144,000-sf space in September.
