Nordstrom Rack Store Coming to Janss Marketplace in Thousand Oaks in Fall 2015

Last month, Nordstrom announced plans to open a 40,000 sq ft Nordstrom Rack at the Janss Marketplace in Thousand Oaks in fall 2015. The two-story store will occupy a portion of the existing Sears location, while Sears will continue occupying an anchor position on the primary floor of the existing store.

This Nordstrom Rack will be about a mile away from the full-line Nordstrom store located at The Oaks shopping mall, which opened there in 2008.

Nordstrom Rack is the off-price retail division of Nordstrom, Inc., offering customers a wide selection of on-trend apparel, accessories and shoes at an everyday savings of 30 to 70 percent off regular prices. The Rack carries merchandise from Nordstrom stores and Nordstrom.com, as well as specially purchased items from many of the top brands sold at Nordstrom. The Rack is designed to provide the ultimate treasure hunt to style-savvy customers.

Exer – More Than Urgent Care Coming to Conejo Gateway Plaza in Newbury Park

Finally, a sign (literally) of something coming to the space previously occupied by Revolution Surf at the Conejo Gateway Plaza in Newbury Park at the corner of N. Wendy Drive and Old Conejo Road! I always thought it would be a great spot for a gym, but Anytime Fitness is in process of fulfilling that vision in the same plaza.

According to its website, Exer - More Than Urgent Care offers treatment ranging from the level of your basic urgent care to just below that of a hospital ER. "Small things like scrapes and bruises can be treated at home, and life-threatening conditions like heart attacks need to be taken care of at a hospital ER. For everything in between there is Exer – More Than Urgent Care. As long as your condition or illness is non life-threatening, we can help you get the care you need quickly and conveniently but without the cost of a hospital ER. Our centers are equipped with digital x-ray, a diagnostic laboratory, splinting & laceration rooms, IV capabilities and more. We also work closely with the best local imaging centers for MRI and CAT scan imaging when you need it."

Sounds like a worthy addition to the local community! This will be only the 3rd Exer location, following Beverly Hills and Calabasas. I like the sounds of this!

Its Calabasas location at 26777 Agoura Rd, Suite 4 is open 9am to 9pm, 7 days a week.

No word on when the Newbury Park location will open, but I'm sure their website at www.exerurgentcare.com will keep you posted.
