SEATTLE, Wa.— Seattle-based Nordstrom, Inc. announced plans today to open a Nordstrom Rack at Shoppes at Belmont in Lancaster County, Pa. The 25,000-square-foot store is scheduled to open in spring 2018. The project is being developed by Manbel Devco I, Limited Partnership and leased and managed by R.J. Waters & Associates, Inc.
Shoppes at Belmont will be conveniently located at the southeast corner of U.S. Route 30 and Fruitville Pike. Nordstrom Rack will join Whole Foods, Target, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Michaels, and Ulta Beauty.
“We’re thrilled to be bringing Nordstrom Rack to Central Pennsylvania,” said Geevy Thomas, president of Nordstrom Rack. “We hope this new store will help us more conveniently serve customers who have been making the drive to our stores in Philadelphia and New York City to shop with us.”
Today the company serves customers at four Racks and two full-line Nordstrom stores in Pennsylvania.
“We are excited to welcome Nordstrom Rack to Lancaster County and to the Shoppes at Belmont,” said Joe Waters, president of R.J. Waters & Associates, Inc. “Nordstrom Rack is a tenant we identified early on in the development process, and we’re happy to see this come to fruition. We believe Nordstrom Rack will be a nice complement to the Shoppes at Belmont.”
