There has been on-going chatter about leasing activity for an Apple store in Vancouver (BC), to open some time during 2006. According to real estate sources, broker CB Richard Ellis is brokering a deal on a street-level space near the downtown Pacific Centre, possibly next to the Hudson’s Bay Company store. You may know that Vancouver hosts 8.5 million tourists a year, with almost 15% from Asia, Europe and South America. Tourists spend..get this… $3.8 billion a year in Vancouver, staying an average of four days and spending $110 per day. Shopping is the #1 activity of vacation visitors, followed by sightseeing and other cultural activities. If rumors of a street-level store are true, this would definitely be Canada’s flagship Apple store.
