North Michigan Avenue Studio Bar

In May and June 2005 Apple reconfigured several stores to accomodate a Studio bar. At North Michigan Avenue (Chicago) store, the Studio took the place of the Internet café, which was removed. A secondary point-of-sale (POS) counter was also installed upstairs, requiring the move of the 'kids' section. [Thanks to Brian for the photos.]

The 'kids' section on the second floor was relocated from the front corner to this location along the side.
