Last month, Banana Republic and anchor retailer Nordstrom announced plans to close their Westfield Mall stores.

Westfield Mall’s parent company will relinquish management of the beleaguered downtown San Francisco shopping center.

Nordstrom shared the mall’s sentiment: Nordstrom wrote in a message to employees, shared with The Examiner on May 2, that"the dynamics of the downtown San Francisco market have changed dramatically over the past several years, impacting customer foot traffic to our stores and our ability to operate successfully." Nordstrom will close its Westfield location by the end of August.

“For now, the stores at the mall remain open under the new management. The public safety resources we’ve dedicated to the area, including ambassadors and police officers, remain in place. The stores are still a part of our downtown experience and we will continue to support this area to make it clean, safe, and inviting for everyone,” Breed’s office said.
