Nordstrom

The much-anticipated NYC Nordstrom flagship was worth the wait. The sprawling seven-floor space mixes high and low fashions alongside pieces from local designers, high-end shoes, accessories, makeup and fragrances. Kids’ gear and in-store shops from designers like Valentino, YSL and Burberry are also on hand. Other features include personal in-store styling, beauty services like brow waxing and facials, denim tailoring, express returns and the option to pick up online purchases in store. Wolf, in collaboration with chef Ethan Stowell, and Jeannie’s, in collaboration with chef Tom Douglas, highlight the seven food and beverage options. The curving glass facade allows in plenty of light.
