Fashion retail store Nordstrom Rack will open a new location at Atlantic Station this fall.
The 28,000-square-foot store Nordstrom Rack is the off-price division of Seattle-based Nordstrom department stores, offering apparel, accessories, beauty products, home decor, and shoes from many of the top brands.
The opening announcement comes after a spate of closures late last year that rocked the mixed-use development, including the departure of the Publix supermarket, DSW shoe store, and Banana Republic. Nordstrom Rack will take over the DSW space.
Property manager, Hines, called the closures a “natural cycle” of turnover in the retail world, but the 6,000+ residents of the development have demanded a voice in the future of Atlantic Station.
“We’re thrilled to welcome Nordstrom Rack to Atlantic Station,” Vikram Mehra, senior managing director at Hines, said in a media statement. “The brand is a natural fit for our retail mix, offering the value‑driven fashion and home selections our shoppers want. This addition further underscores the strong leasing momentum and the continued evolution of Atlantic Station’s retail experience.”
Atlantic Station has recently announced additional new leases, including lifestyle brand MINISO, which recently opened, while designer streetwear shop Repeat ATL and En Vogue Nail Bar are expanding their square footage.
Restaurant openings slated for 2026 include Gocha’s All Day, Playa Bowls, and a second location of Busy Bee Café.
After Publix closed on Dec. 27, residents launched a petition (which has more than 1,800 signatures) to have Trader Joe’s open a new grocery store at Atlantic Station.
