ARLINGTON, TX-Seattle-based Nordstrom Inc. plans to open a 31,673-square-foot Nordstrom Rack in The Parks at Arlington mall.
The store will be the fourth Nordstrom Rack store in the Metroplex and will open in spring 2011. It will open next to DSW on the mall's main level and feature a new exterior entrance from the mall's main surface parking area.
As the off-price retail division of Nordstrom, the Rack carries merchandise from Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com at 50% to 60% off original Nordstrom prices. Nordstrom Rack also offers a wide selection of apparel, accessories and shoes from many of the brands carried in Nordstrom stores and purchased specially for Nordstrom Rack, with most at savings of 30% to 70% off.
Nordstrom operates four full-line Nordstrom stores in the Metroplex, but none in Arlington. The closest store is located in Northeast Mall in Hurst, TX.
"We really think this new Rack will help us better connect with our customers in Arlington and the surrounding communities," says Colin Johnson, a spokesman for Nordstrom. He tells GlobeSt. the national retailer is particularly excited about its new location in The Parks because of its interior and exterior entry.
In addition to Nordstrom Rack, the 1.5 million-square-foot mall features Macy's, Dillard's, Sears, JCPenney, Banana Republic, Forever 21 and Barnes & Noble. Additionally, it offers a dining and entertainment mix that includes The Cheesecake Factory, AMC Theatres and the ICE at The Parks skating rink. The Parks is owned and managed by Chicago-based General Growth Properties.
The Nordstrom Rack at The Parks is the only Rack store scheduled for opening in Texas in the next 18 months. However, Nordstrom has announced 19 other Rack stores across the U.S. in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Virginia, and Washington D.C.
