J. Crew Factory and Bath & Body Works appear to be joining South Beach Regional shopping center next to the new Nordstrom Rack in Jacksonville Beach.
Landlord Regency Centers Corp. has both stores listed on its property brochure for the center, showing J. Crew Factory in 5,785 square feet and Bath & Body Works in 3,000 square feet near the 29,735-square-foot Nordstrom Rack.
All three appear to be under construction and are fronted by a construction screen.
J. Crew Factory is in Space 37 next to Nordstrom Rack, the off-price retail division of the Seattle-based department store chain.
Bath & Body Works is in Space 35.
No tenant is listed for Space 36.
New York City-based J. Crew Group is an apparel and accessories retailer for men, women and children.
Factory.JCrew.com says J. Crew Factory sells clothing at 40% to 70% off everything with additional deals.
Work was approved March 8, 2023, for J. Crew Group to build-out a 7,188-square-foot J. Crew Factory store in The Markets at Town Center next to St. Johns Town Center.
J. Crew also has J. Crew and Madewell clothing stores in St. Johns Town Center.

Nordstrom Inc. announced April 13 it will open a 30,000-square-foot Nordstrom Rack store in Jacksonville Beach in spring 2024.
The Regency Centers brochure shows it as Anchor C in the former Stein Mart store.
“The addition perfectly complements the shopping center’s strong merchandising mix and provides an additional community favorite shopping destination serving the greater Beaches area and eastern Jacksonville communities,” said Eric Apple, leasing agent for Regency Centers, in an April 2023 news release.
Nordstrom has operated a Nordstrom Rack store in The Markets at Town Center since 2013 and opened a full-line 124,000-square-foot store at St. Johns Town Center in 2014.
When the Jacksonville Beach store opens, Nordstrom will have six full-line stores and 18 Nordstrom Rack stores in Florida.
Nordstrom also announced a new look for its brand.
“The new branding celebrates and reflects the bold, authentic, empowered and expressive spirit of our customers while showing them even more ways to Rack whether they shop on our website, app or at one of our Nordstrom Rack stores,” it said in a news release.
