Nordstrom Bets On A Big NYC Store As Other Retailers Close Across U.S.
The luxury department store chain is opening a 320,000- square-foot store in Manhattan as retailers such as Barneys and Forever 21 file for bankruptcy and more competition comes from online brands.
In one corner of Nordstrom's new flagship store in New York City, interlocking Burberry logos covered every surface. Dramatic string music played. And beyond the merchandise, a small cafe doused in bright pink seemed to be just waiting for someone to pose for a photo.
"No professional photographs," a spokesperson guiding members of the press through the store said. "But social photos are OK."
