Seattle-based Nordstrom, Inc., a leading fashion specialty retailer, announced it will open a 39,000-square-foot Nordstrom Rack, a unit of the company's off-price retail division, in Cherry Creek in Denver, Colo. in spring 2010. The new store will be located at the intersection of South Colorado Boulevard and Florida Avenue.

    "We think this is a great opportunity for us," said Scott Meden, president of Nordstrom Rack. "We look forward to building a strong team of local employees to help us serve our Cherry Creek customers."

It will be the third Nordstrom Rack in the state joining a Rack at South Denver Marketplace adjacent to Park Meadows Mall in Lone Tree, Colo. and a Rack at Flatiron Marketplace in Broomfield, Colo.
