Proposed Store Placed on ‘Inactive’ List

March 30, 2009

It appears that the proposed retail store at Grand Place in St. Paul (Minn.) has been placed on the inactive list. Job listings were posted last August for the location, inside a quarter-block development fronting two streets east of downtown. However, a review of current job listings shows an odd coding error that seems to indicate the store opening has been postponed. In the listing, the name of the store is prefixed by the tag, “_inactive_”. No other job listings on Apple’s Web site have this status notation. Had the project been on-schedule, the location would have opened some time during March or April 2009.

Notice that the title of the job listing is prefixed by _inactive_.

The Augusta, GA store job listings show the same code. It is odd. Though the situation here is much more peculiar as the second PeachMac opened here back in October.

Man that really sucks. The market is so overloaded in MN they really really really needed that new store.

I’d either like to see the State Street Apple Store appear as Inactive or find out where they’re actually moving in to.
