Chinook Centre is planning to use the remaining 40,000 square feet of the old Sears for four to six new retailers.  Before this location opened, the closest Nordstrom near Calgary was Spokane, Washington. This is Nordstrom’s first location in Canada. Chinook Centre has gone thru several changes over the years:
