Just when you thought apple could not do anything better. They do this today they open at Grand Central Terminal is about to become a high-tech hub.
Apple is opening its fifth Manhattan store in the bustling midtown landmark on Friday, aiming to capture commuters’ dollars.“It’s going to be fabulous,” said Connecticut stay-at-home mom Cathy Landy, 38, whose husband travels to the station daily for work. “We don’t have to come to a shop often, but it’s nice to have it be so convenient.”But don’t look for a giant glass cube.
Apple toned down its sleek design aesthetic to conform to the 140-year-old train station’s landmark status.
The white Apple logo adorns just a few spots along the east balcony, where the store sprawls out over 23,000 square feet, stretching out along the northeast side. It will be one of the retailer’s largest shops.
Much of the store, dotted with Apple’s simple, white tables, is open to the building’s iconic star-studded dome and looks out over the busy main concourse.
The store opens at 10 a.m. Friday.
