Frankly I think the Ross coming to Broadway is a good thing for now. To me the worst part of Broadway is walking down the street and seeing the old metal doors shuttered and the facades dirty with crappy signage. Plus, Ross has their Los Angeles buyers located on 9th Street Downtown as well. It sounds like this concept may be different. I don't think we will see a Nordstrom or Bloomies anytime soon...most likely they would locate closer to LA Live. Broadway closes up at 6:00PM. Hopefully, with all the other developments, we will see more retail staying open later. At least Ross sells more than tube socks and faux fragrances. I can see a Fresh and Easy on Broadway as well as Forever 21. Alternative Apparel has an office where Main and Spring come together..how about a retail shop on Broadway? I believe they just opened one in Venice.
