Nordstrom does New York

Nordstrom is opening it's discounted offspring, Nordstrom Rack in NYC proper.  According to the NY Times article, this will be the first Nordstrom of any kind in Manhattan.  Apparently, Nordstrom hasn't been able to find a space large enough for the regular department store, so Manhattanites will have to settles for deals and steals on high fashion.

I went to a Nordstrom Rack over the weekend on our trip to Ft. Lauderdale - there is one at Sawgrass Mills.  It was great, but I have to say...between the Rack, Off 5th and Neiman's Last Call, Neiman's was my favorite.  It had the best selection of dresses, which is admittedly my weakness.
