SEATTLE, March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Seattle-based Nordstrom, Inc., (NYSE: JWN) announced today plans to open a new Nordstrom Rack at Huntington Shopping Center in Huntington, N.Y. The approximately 36,000-square-foot store is scheduled to open during fall 2012.
Nordstrom Rack is the off-price retail division of Nordstrom, Inc., carrying on-trend merchandise from Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com at 50 to 60 percent 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. These items are purchased specially for Nordstrom Rack, with most at savings of 30 to 70 percent off.
Huntington Shopping Center is a large power center located in the Long Island community of Huntington, 11 miles east of the Roosevelt Field full-line Nordstrom store and Westbury Nordstrom Rack location, which later this year will relocate to The Gallery at Westbury Plaza. The new Huntington Nordstrom Rack will join anchor tenants Bed Bath & Beyond, Buy Buy Baby, Michaels, PetSmart and Toys "R" Us. The center is owned and managed by Federal Realty Investment Trust.
"We think Nordstrom Rack is a best in class retailer and will provide the fashion and brand savvy shopper with a fantastic retail experience in their new location at Huntington Shopping Center," said Wendy Seher, vice president of leasing for Federal Realty.
"We've been on Long Island for 15 years and are fortunate to have a lot of great customers in the community," said Geevy Thomas, president of Nordstrom Rack. "We hope our new store at Huntington Shopping center will offer them a more convenient way to shop with us."
