A source has told The Birmingham News that Apple is in final negotiations to locate a store at the The Summit (Ala.) mall in that city, the company’s first move into a block of four southern states that constitutes a black-out zone running from mid-Georgia, west to Texas and Oklahoma. According to the newspaper, a 6,500 square-foot space (#28) is being vacated by Eddie Bauer on the east side of the mall, and that Apple wants to move in. According to the newspaper, Libby Lassiter, executive vice president of development and leasing for Summit developer Bayer Properties, “confirmed the center was in negotiations with Apple several years ago, but the space available for the store was too small–by six inches.”
