Was peeking through the door crack into the construction area that is behind the black billboard with the Apple logo when a construction worker came up and let herself through the door. Knowing I had an opportunity to ask a question--and only one--and not having had time to think much about it, I put on my most winning smile and asked "How may floors will the store have?". The answer--just one. The work inside is still in its early stages. There is still mostly concrete showing on walls, floors, and ceiling. Cheers [IFO -- Hey!

What I saw is, in the location I've been certain that they're going into, there's the famous black wall with the white apple logo and website listing. Then near the middle there's a set of double doors, where in the middle of the two doors, there's the sticker (which is the same one you get in the book with apple products). So, it's not a dead giveaway that they're going in there. Can't get much clearer than a big giant logo with a website painted on a big wall, don't need to go looking for any subtle sign. Took a little peak through the crack, looks like things are starting to shape up quite nicely in there. I was hoping it'll be open by the May long weekend, but I don't think so. I think I read something about late summer, I'm gonna say probably sometime in early August, just before Back to School starts up. But, if they wait until early September, it'll be a perfect Birthday present for me. I was just down there earlier today.

You don't need to go looking for a "hint" of where the apple store will be. If you go one floor up you'll see the classic black/grey wall and apple logo. Nothing hidden or hard to find about it.

The actual Apple Store is located upstairs. There are black walls and a huge apple logo. These picture are showing the space downstairs.
