An Apple spokesperson has confirmed that the company will open a retail store on Wisconsin Avenue in the Georgetown district of Washington (DC). However, Apple public relations manager Amy Barney told the Washington Business Journal that she had no announcement to make regarding when the store will open. Apple purchased the property at 1229 N.W. Wisconsin Avenue in 2007 for $13.9 milion. The former retail tenant moved out earlier this year, and Apple submitted architectural plans to the Old Georgetown Board last summer. In the meantime, the front windows of the space are covered with paper and there is no construction underway. Barney told the Journal that she had no knowledge of the property’s tax status. District records show that Apple owes $165,000 in unpaid property taxes, penalties and late fees.
