Then as now, the company's purpose was to adapt the store design to the new premises of Apple stores. On that occasion, the size of the store was doubled, moving to a nearby location.

Store remodeling work is intense right now. At the moment, 7 stores around the world are in the remodeling phase. Either they have a scheduled date for the reform, as is the case in this article, or they are immersed in the reform. The most significant case is the store on Fifth Avenue in New York with its characteristic glass cube. Due to the symbolism and location of this store, a temporary store has been installed, from last January 20, 2017 until the end of the works.
