This new location marks the company's second Connecticut store, the first of two East Coast openings this fall

Leading fashion retailer Nordstrom, opened the doors to Nordstrom the SoNo Collection today, the company's second full-line store in Connecticut. The three-level, 140,000 square-foot store features the latest store design, a brand-new service concept, a new beauty and wellness experience, and a comprehensive offering of clothing, shoes and accessories for the entire family. The first Nordstrom store in Connecticut opened at Westfarms Mall in Farmington in 1997.

The company's newest store design concept includes lighter fixtures, more windows and natural light that connect the shopping experience to the outside world. The goal was to create spaces where customers want to spend their leisure time, to encourage a sense of discovery for new brands or styles they haven't tried before.
