I think I good question we can ask, are any major brands building new stores in San Francisco? That would be a good indicator of whether or not brands see the market as too-risky or that Nordstrom is using a convenient scapegoat.

I’m asking here the locals here, I haven’t been to the city in over 20 years so I haven’t the slightest idea.

Not SF, but similar problem Seattle just got a Uniglo downtown (ironically in the old Macy’s/Bon Marche building). After losing more than a few brands this year (eg Nike), having a new one pop up was notable.

Ikea just opened a new store + cafe just around the corner from the mall mentioned in the article.
