Bloomingdale's, Nordstrom Opening Connecticut Stores

Bloomingdale’s (New York) and Nordstrom (Seattle) both plan to open stores in a 700,000-square-foot enclosed shopping center being developed by General Growth Properties Inc. in Norwalk, Conn.

The stores are slated to open in fall 2018, and both retailers indicated they will create three-level, 150,000-square-foot units, reports Women’s Wear Daily.

This will be Bloomingdale’s first full-line store in Connecticut and Nordstrom’s second. “We’re glad we have an opportunity to serve our existing Fairfield County customers closer to home as well as customers new to Nordstrom in a compelling, new retail destination,” said Jamie Nordstrom, president of stores for Nordstrom Inc.
