Over 300 applauding store employees lined the aisles of the 144,000-square foot store to cheer the first customers through the door. The store is the retailer's sixth Full-Line Store in the state of Texas.

Earlier in the week, Nordstrom celebrated its opening with a gala party to benefit the Junior League of San Antonio, Cancer Therapy and Research Center and San Antonio Public Library Foundation. Two thousand guests enjoyed hors d'oeuvres, live entertainment, a runway fashion show and the opportunity to do some "sneak preview" shopping. The fashionable fete raised $200,000.
