Nordstrom Rack takes Virgin Megastore space

Nordstrom Rack, a discount unit of retailer Nordstrom, will open at One Union Square South, occupying 32,136 square feet on the lower level of the former Virgin Megastore space, according to a press release from Nordstrom. The store, the first Nordstrom Rack in Manhattan, is slated to open in spring 2010. The terms of Nordstrom’s lease were not disclosed, but The Real Deal reported in March that retail space facing Union Square Park usually commands $400 per square foot and the Virgin Megastore space could rent for even more. Best Buy is also coming to One Union Square South and is expected to open a 46,000-square-foot store in the former Circuit City space during the fourth quarter of this year. TRD
