If bigger means better, Brea shoppers should be all set.
After months of construction and an all-night move, a brand new Nordstrom opens today at Brea Mall. The store has 184,000 square feet, and replaces the 9-year-old Nordstrom store at Brea.
The new, $17.5-million store about doubles the previous store’s area of 104,000 square feet.
Among its features: an upgraded designer area, with labels like Andrea Behar, Karl Logan and Mark Eisen. The Brass Rail contemporary young men’s section has been expanded. And there’s a new gift gallery with selected glassware and a big selection of Baccarat crystal and Lladro figurines.
The store should draw customers from the entire north county area, Diamond Bar, Whittier and as far as Riverside, said Marty Wickstrom, Nordstrom regional manager in Orange County.
The Seattle-based chain views the store “as a long-term commitment to the Brea area,” said Lucy Hamilton, a Nordstrom spokeswoman. “We had just outgrown the old store”--which was said to be one of the most profitable in the 49-store chain.
The new Nordstrom officially opens its doors at 10 a.m.
