Nordstrom opened its first flagship store in Manhattan in October 2019. To introduce Nordstrom to NYC, we collaborated with famed street photographer Joel Meyerowitz & Gus Powell to capture moments of everyday life in NYC. We paired these images and videos with service messaging to convey a sense of inclusivity and connection between people that reflects the Nordstrom brand and the ever-changing canvas that is NYC.

The campaign included hundreds of out of home placements, including the New York Stock Exchange banner, billboards, news stands, transit shelters, and a complete takeover of the Columbus Circle subway station.
