Apple plans a third NYC store
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you New Yorkers get everything.* During this afternoon's financial conference call, Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer announced that a third Big Apple store is being planned. It's been suggested that this building at 401 West 14th Street will be the third store's location. At 52,000 square-feet, it would house one heck of a store.*Except when my Red Sox hand you three losses in a row. You're welcome.

Could we have just one in Charlottesville VA. I either have to buy over the internet or go down to Richmond. I took a road trip for Tiger. Come on were dying here.

I was going to say Winston-Salem. There's Apple Stores in Charlotte, Durham, and Raleigh. Charlotte is about 10 miles closer than Durham for me.
I tend to pick up Apple gear at the Greensboro CompUSA unless I HAVE to go to an Apple store (I work in GSO).

The amazing thing is that Toronto already has three Apple Stores. Torontonians will no doubt use this fact as further evidence that T.O. really is the centre of the universe.

I've heard that Barneys has already spoken for the building. You Weblogs people already had the story here:

Plus, it wouldn't make sense for Apple to setup shop on one of the most expensive retail corners in downtown Manhattan where they'll be dealing with a drunk B&T crowd stumbling out of stretch Hummers and into the sceney clubs adjacent in every direction at all hours of the night.

14th and 9th ave is a little off the beaten path for an Apple store. I'd expect they'd want to put it in an area where they'd get more than just neighborhood traffic.

Union square makes the most sense. Uptown is covered and SoHo is covered. I guess they could put one upper westside. Maybe around Lincoln center or Columbus circle.

Another store in NC would be nice, since making the trip to any of them is a 3-4 hour journey off the mountain for me. Something even half the distance would make it actually feasible to make more trips than the pseudo-yearly pilgrimage

I'm not surprised that the wrong apple store is depicted. TUAW seems to chose random pictures for their posts, based on how nice it looks rather than how closely it applies.

Heck, NYC may as well get a third Apple store, Bethesda, MD has two.

If you want to count up all the Apple Stores in the NYC Metro area - then you can compare THAT to the sprawl that is LA.
I checked the list - I counted 14 in the tri state area (NY, NJ, CT) and all in cities/towns that people commute to NYC from every day, most of the towns are also on mass transit lines. I know you can get to the one in West Nyack that way. So when they say NYC is getting its 3rd store - they really mean Manhattan.
