Mall owner Simon Property Group says that malls are back to 95% capacity from the start of the Covid pandemic. Seattle-based fashion retailer Nordstrom’s is responding. It will open a Nordstrom’s Rack store at the Northwoods shopping center in the fall, its third in San Antonio. The 35,000-square-foot store will be located in a retail center that features Barnes & Noble, Bed Bath & Beyond, Old Navy and Ulta.

Nordstrom began a $500,000 yearlong renovation project to an existing space at 18134 San Pedro Ave. in February. With the addition of this new location, Nordstrom will operate 21 Nordstrom Rack stores and eight Nordstrom stores in Texas. Nordstrom Rack stores already located in San Antonio in the Alamo Quarry Market and The Rim. Nordstrom Rack offers customers up to 70 percent off on-trend apparel, accessories, beauty, home and shoes from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom stores.
