Seattle-based Nordstrom, Inc. (NYSE: JWN) announced today plans to open a Nordstrom Rackat Portofino Shopping Center in Shenandoah, Texas.
The approximately 27,000-square-foot store is scheduled to open in spring 2018. The property is owned by Kite Realty Group.
Nordstrom Rack at Portofino Shopping Center will be located conveniently just off Interstate 45, north of The Woodlands and about 30 miles north of downtown Houston. The new store will join Sam’s Club, DSW, TJ Maxx, PGA Superstore, Michael’s, Old Navy, Men’s Wearhouse, several restaurants, and more.
“We’ve enjoyed getting to know this community since opening our full-line store at The Woodlands in 2014,” said Geevy Thomas, president of Nordstrom Rack. “Our customers here have let us know they’d love a more convenient way to shop Nordstrom Rack – rather than fighting traffic to our other nearby locations – so we’re very excited to bring them great brands at great Rack prices closer to home.”
This will be the sixth Rack location in the Houston area, the most recent of which opened at Willowbrook Mall in September of 2014. The company also operates a full line location at the Woodlands Mall, which opened in 2014.
“We are excited to welcome Nordstrom Rack to our Portofino Shopping Center,” said John Kite, CEO of Kite Realty Group Trust. “The addition of Nordstrom Rack is part of our broader redevelopment project which includes significantly enhancing tenant mix and reconstructing the existing layout to optimize space and improve customer experience. Nordstrom Rack joins a strong lineup of national retailers and shops and adds to the high-quality merchandising mix at our 385,000-square-foot power center. We look forward to further strengthening our relationship with Nordstrom, Inc. in the future.”

The Rack carries merchandise from Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com, as well as specially purchased items from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom.
