Amazon and direct to consumer businesses murdered them awhile ago. Now that interest rates are high they can’t get more loans to keep the charade going they’re a dead zombie company. Politicize it all you want but they’re the next sears and circuit city regardless.
No wonder ups asked for a raise , there the face of alot of products now , anything online is than represented by ups and delivered and any issue had to go through ups 🙄
And what enables theft? Poverty. No one can afford to shop at stores like Nordstrom anymore. We need to raise wages according to inflation and tax the ultra wealthy.
@@nickgreatpwrful5754what “enables” theft is a bizarre tolerance for it, not “poverty”. Most of this mass retail theft phenomenon isn’t caused by people acting out of economic necessity or desperation. It’s down by dysfunctional losers who refuse to better themselves and can’t be bothered to do any honest work, and are instead motivated by criminal schemes to get “easy money”, and will fully take advantage of moronic “social justice” initiatives like woke DAs, defunded police departments and idiotic initiatives like prop 47. “Poverty” has little to do with it. Whatever “poverty” these people are experiencing is entirely driven by their criminal behavior and dysfunctional culture, not the other way around. Plenty of places in the world and the US with substantially higher rates of “poverty” and none of this lunatic behavior. Only in woke “progressive” dystopias like SF.
I'm guessing everything that involves not truly cleaning up the messes of the people, policies, and party that enables the ultra rich to get infinitesimally more ultra rich while leaving ordinary people in poverty and consistently eroding their safety net, or ensuring the housing market is for people who need a place to live and not glorified gamblers.
And now, one of the politicians most responsible for destroying this city and the state in which it’s located, wants to be president of the United States…
They're not complaining ...all got nice paychecks , Govt benefit packages waiting for them when they retire , and will all slink off to Arizona , Panama or someplace with a " good " quality of life and a " lower cost of living " so they don't have to pay the same prices that their policies constructed for everyone in California.

The Nordstroms is Des Moines Iowa is still open and has never experienced gang violence. Of course the population is 84% white so it might seem boring to some.
This is what happens when crime is not handled in a way that promotes accountability. I remember when the Oakland Mall was a beautiful place growing up. Then it was overran by crime, gang presence, and everyone stood by and watched because anyone with money had already started shopping at BayFair. When BayFair went down then they started shopping at Stoneridge. On and On until finally nowhere is safe and they cry "How did this happen?"
Yep, the same lefty progressives were complaining about how Safeway and other grocery stores exploit the poor back in the 1980's and 1990's but once these stores got fed up and left, they whined about "food deserts" and blamed those same stores for abandoning them. Seems like the main requirement to be a Bay Area lefty progressive is to not be able to see the connection between actions and consequences..🙄
I never go where criminals hang out at in SF. The community who knows the city, outside the plaza has many mental illnesses who are drugged up on narcotics. Criminal activity lurks. The News brought so many shop lifting news to the entire Bay Area of awareness
San Francisco government officials: Well, it happened. For some unknown reason, every store from huge to tiny has left the city. Crime is out of control everywhere. There isn't a single place anywhere where our citizens can buy the necessities of life, not even food or fuel to travel. What do we do now? Quick. Someone take what's left of the city's coffers and establish free bus routes to the suburbs, and nearby towns and cities. It's time to spread our successful message of governance far and wide!😂

Aww, no more 'free shopping sprees'? The people made it one of the most popular 'charity stores' there was in SF. Perhaps go on those mass 'shopping sprees' at Lowe's or Home Depot, before hitting the new Ikea store?

Dear Bay Area. Can we please try something new and DON'T VOTE FOR ANY LIBERAL POLITICIANS OR POLICIES THIS NOVEMBER??? Seriously, the only thing we have left to lose at this point are our lives. Our city, our culture, our health & safety, and our Bay Area authenticity are all gone.....
@@nickgreatpwrful5754 So what you're basically saying is that liberals are too stubborn and reluctant to admit their own failures that they would prefer to keep on doing what they are doing, regardless of who it hurts, correct? 😑
What people don’t realise is that most of these big store have been operating at losses for years! They barely make it through the year and a big corporation owns them all! Go figure … it competes with itself. The crime has made it worse and online shopping didn’t help. Once worked in business valuation and I was shocked when we saw the books.
We have two Nordstrom stores here in Austin. Although I don't shop there I heard from one of their store managers that both stores are doing well. They attract a lot of tourist shopping in the city while tourists are here seeing other things. Other Texans from smaller cities and town come into Austin specifically to shop the upscale stores here. So far we haven't had any mass shoplifting episodes here. I've been to S.F. several times. Market Street used to be such a vibrant retail shopping area of downtown. On my most recent visit, the place is more like a ghost town. It just went down so fast within a few years with the crime, the homelessness, the dirt and trash. Now, it's less appealing to stay at downtown S.F. hotels as there is not much for tourists to walk to. Safety is a major factor.
This administration is bringing back the Wild West! The diverse community will have to leave their neighborhoods to loot and shoplift! The city will not miss the lost tax revenue. Plenty of other big businesses to tax to the limit
And cars actually suck out life out of places. In order for a business to survive you need foot traffic. I know, shocker. Car traffic makes it dangerous for everyone outside of a car.
I worked in this store in 1990. The design never made sense. It was not designed with safety in mind. But the area was never a super safe area. Nordstrom paid for security to escort employees to their cars 30 years ago. It doesn’t look like the store was updated. It was too much retail space in 1988 and that has not changed…. Without people working downtown- there isn’t shopping. We didn’t get much tourist traffic 30 yrs ago…
I recall visiting this mall back in '96. It was wonderful. Now, CA has a governor who is incompetent. The same can be said of the SF mayor. CA, you voted for this.
I'm 23. I remember it still felt sort of unsafe when I went with my family in the early 2010's. Just got progressively worse since then. It was probably great in the 2000's but I was too young to really tell. I usually went to the Westfield in Santa Clara, which is doing great right now
Wow…. sad.. bitter sweet goodbye to the store… when we all shop online now.. and high cost of living in San Francisco drove many out of the city. It is just way too expensive for most people.
Do Liberal policy makers ever admit their mistakes? I've reviewed maybe 60 years of horrible liberal policy coming out of California and I've yet to hear anyone ever apologize for any of it.
Nordstrom closed Stonestown’s 1st & with Rack coming to San Mateo, I bet Hillsdale’s closes. Even when that dying chain was relevant in the 80s it was over priced and a little dull.
They should have closed a year ago. The city government have basically told every retail company that they do not care what the criminals do... however, they do care if the store even TRIES to stop a thief. The criminal is the protected elite of the city. I wouldn't step foot into 'Frisco... or even California for that mater.
Down under, the same thing happened to the former MYER Centre in Brisbane last July and local retailers are now thriving thanks to no longer having to compete with the MYER Elephant in the room
These stories just say these stores are closing because of decreased foot traffic. Well, there is a very good reason for the decreased foot traffic in these areas, but media will not discuss those because it is not 'politically correct'!
They can turn the lower floors into a homeless shelter and the upper floors into fentanyl dens.
