Apple already has open the store that provisionally replaces the emblematic store on 5th Avenue, to carry out the adaptation works to the new design of the company's latest stores and to turn it into an Apple store that is a little more accessible to visitors. This store that opened as the company's second store in Manhattan in 2006, is A must for all those users who know the history of the company, no longer only of those who consume their products. This store was designed by the architect Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, it currently has a useful area of 2015 m2 before the renovation, despite the fact that from the outside only the spectacular glass cube can be seen and it is located exactly at 767 Fith Aveue, New York.
For now, the store will be closed until further notice and therefore it opens a few meters from where the store is located that will serve users while the works last. In this case, the 9to5Mac medium shows us some photos of the inside of this temporary store in which you can see that we are facing a simple store similar to the ones we have today.
These were the words of the late Steve Jobs, at the time of opening this iconic store on 5th Avenue:
We opened our first New York store in SoHo in 2002, and it has been more successful than we ever dreamed of, so now we are proud to introduce our second store in the city, located on Fifth Avenue. These are incredible facilities with unbeatable service in an ideal place open 24 hours a day. We believe the Apple Store on Fifth Avenue is going to become a favorite destination for New Yorkers and people around the world.
Now the store is in the works to adapt to the new stores that the company has spread around the world and especially with the latest ones open that add new possibilities to customers such as testing cases, using Beats headphones and in general some interesting changes. So if you are thinking of visiting the store taking advantage of a possible trip to «the city that never sleeps» the best thing is that know that today it will be closed.
