The future Pioneer Place (Oreg.) store is nearly finished, according to passersby. Located across from the Gap store on the concourse level, it’s on the way to the food court, which is always a prime spot.

The turn-out for the Woodland (Mich.) retail store grand opening was fantastic, and featured unique grand unveiling (right) of the back-lit Apple logo above the door at 9 a.m.–thanks powerbooktrance for the photo. You can find lots of other photos on the Flickr Web site (#1 #2 #3 #4). Also read the Grand Rapids Press newspaper account of some early-arrivers.

Calif.) store, which has ‘home’ and ‘iPod’ sections at the front.

Here are some behind-the-scenes photos of the half-finished store as provided by a tipster.
