First pics of the Boston Apple Store

We were out on Newbury Street for dinner yesterday. Here are a few shots of the Apple Store on Boylstons Street the night before Opening Day.

I like how the sign looks at night, too:

Looks more like the Wrigley Field scoreboard than the green monster. Gotta be temporary for that area of Boston, though.

Wicked pissa'!

i dont want a flagship in erie i just want a store. from what i hear. about 20% of erie grads this year want macs for college. please apple hook us up

This is a fantastic nod to how Fenway is ingrained into all of Boston's DNA - have there been any other instances of Apple paying such strong tribute to regional ties with their store openings?

I can't recall anything as regionally specific as this from Apple's store openings - am I right in thinking so, or have there been other examples?

I walked by thursday and there was still all the construction equipment in front of it, but the entire front wall of the store appears to be glass. Also, I remember hearing before it was supposed to be going all the way through to Newbury st but theres a ally in between so I doubt thats gonna happen

I walk by the store all the time. I always try to get a peek past the doors so I can see what's going on inside. Last time I walked by they were working on putting together the glass staircase in the middle of the store. They were taking huge pieces of glass out of boxes on the street and carrying them inside the store. The staircase looks very much like the one at NYC 5th Ave.

How early do people arrive to "camp out" before the opening of a store? I really want to go!!

I love the attention to detail even on something temporary.

Go Sox, Yankees Suck.

ohh thats nice, i didnt see it at the sox game wednesday night. probably wasn't paying attention.
