Re: Nordstrom--where's the store?
There were full Nordstrom stores in San Bernardino (Montclair Plaza) and Riverside (Galleria at Tyler) counties until a few years ago.

IMO.....................they have done nothing to step things up with that location. The merchandise mix is notably inferior to other upper tier Macy's.storewanderer wrote: ↑September 4th, 2022, 1:48 pmBut does Macy's step things up in that market? Palm Desert was one they've put some money into recently...veteran+ wrote: ↑September 4th, 2022, 6:53 amThe real estate bust around 2008 ruined that PLUS................there just isn't enough "seasonal business" to sustain a FULL service store.
The Coachella Valley is not a retail paradise by any measure. Most retailers experience low average store volumes in comparison to other areas.
Even Paseo Drive is a retail joke even though it likes to claim to be the Rodeo Drive of the desert.
Almost would argue situation is better in El Centro since it has Dillards.

Re: Nordstrom--where's the store?
We've only visited the home/furniture department at Palm Desert so don't know what the rest of the store is like. The mall management seems quite sketchy (they forced out a local independent record/media store which had hung on through Covid on a flimsy premise). We'll stroll through El Paseo now and then (they host a rather fun periodic car show on Thursdays) but anything other than big box waits till we head over to LA.
