Nordstrom Rack announces relocation of downtown Seattle store

Department store group Nordstrom, Inc. has shared plans to relocate its Nordstrom Rack downtown Seattle store. The Seattle-based retailer is set to move its off-price retail store to 601 Pine Street, with the new store scheduled to open sometime in spring 2027.

"We're excited to welcome customers to our beautiful new downtown Seattle location, which features convenient street access and an enhanced shopping experience," said Gemma Lionello, president of Nordstrom Rack, in a statement. 

"Seattle has been our company's home for more than a century, and we're proud to continue serving this community with our selection of great brands at great prices. Customers can also take advantage of services like online order pickup from Nordstrom.com and NordstromRack.com, along with easy returns." 

The new 39,000-square-foot store will be housed in a historic building owned by a local partnership led by Mike Hess and is centrally located at Sixth Avenue and Pine Street in downtown Seattle. 

"We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to activate this key corner of Seattle's retail core," said Joanna Callahan, partner at Hess Callahan Group. "Partnering with Nordstrom Rack has been wonderful, and we are working hard to fill the rest of the building with exciting co-tenants."

The relocation comes as Nordstrom confirms at least 14 new Nordstrom Rack store openings across ten states scheduled for 2026, including Orlando, Tampa, and Pompano Beach in Florida; Plymouth and Mansfield in Massachusetts; and Knoxville, Tennessee.
