SEATTLE, Sept. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- To further provide
customers with access to more convenient services in their
neighborhood, Nordstrom, Inc. today announced Nordstrom Local
Brentwood (214 26th
Street) will open its doors on Sept.
28th and Nordstrom Local Downtown Los Angeles
(The Bloc, 750 W. 7th Street, Suite S200) will
open on Oct. 12. Both stores bring
unique services and design aesthetics to reflect the needs of
customers who live nearby.
Nordstrom opened its first Nordstrom Local on Melrose in
Los Angeles in October 2017. These neighborhood hubs offer
customers the opportunity to shop and access Nordstrom services in
a convenient, central location. The opening of the two additional
locations are one piece of Nordstrom's overall local market
strategy where the company is combining the scale of its national
infrastructure with its local assets of people, product and place
to help reimagine the shopping experience for customers.
Additionally, Nordstrom is introducing a new feature called "Get
It Fast" on Nordstrom.com and the mobile app for customers in
eligible zip codes in Los Angeles.
Get It Fast will provide customers with a real-time view of
inventory available no later than next day. They can choose a
convenient Nordstrom Local or Nordstrom location to pick up their
purchase or opt for free next day shipping to their Los Angeles address.
"Los Angeles is one of our most
highly-engaged markets, with roughly four million active
customers," said Jamie Nordstrom,
president of stores. "Our customers have told us they want to shop
where, how and when they choose. One of our goals with Nordstrom
Local is to help provide them with a seamless and convenient
experience, bringing services like in-store pick up of online
orders, alterations, personal styling and more right to their
neighborhood."
Nordstrom Local Services offered at Brentwood and Downtown locations
Like
the location on Melrose, customers in Nordstrom Local Brentwood and
Downtown hubs can enjoy consultations with personal stylists, Buy
Online & Pick-up in Store, alterations, curbside pickup, fast
and easy returns from Nordstrom.com and other online third-party
retailers, Trunk Club services, refreshments and elevated gift
wrapping in partnership with Paper Source. Both locations will be
furnished by Anthropologie Home, who is collaborating with
Nordstrom to outfit the stores with the latest in home goods and
accessories. Each of the Nordstrom Locals will also offer dry
cleaning services in partnership with a Los Angeles area dry cleaner.
About Nordstrom Local Brentwood
The design of the
approximately 1,200-square-foot Brentwood store, will focus on styling and
alterations. The ambiance is feminine with copper lighting
pendants, curved furniture, soft lights, white walls and wood
accents. In the daytime, the store welcomes lots of natural
light.

through an industrial décor complete with open ceilings, exposed
ducts, deep saturated colors, woven wall art and hand-crafted
wooden accented furniture.
"Our customer feedback for our Melrose location, which opened in
fall 2017, has been positive. Many of our Nordstrom Local customers
typically live within two miles of the store and shop more
regularly than other customers," said Shea
Jensen, Nordstrom senior vice president of customer
experience. "We are really excited to introduce two new Nordstrom
Local stores to our customers and neighbors in Brentwood and downtown Los Angeles and look forward to seeing how
