Fanboys go how far to check out Apple store under construction?

The future Broadway (NYC) retail store now under construction at the angled intersection with 67th Street will feature unique architectural designs that will put it in competition for the most spectacular store in the chain. The steel-framed building has risen from the near-total demolition of a former two-level Victoria’s Secret store, with but a single wall retained to avoid city burdensome permit requirements.
Priced at over $37.9 million, the 75-foot wide storefront of the building will mimic the all-glass design of the Boylston Street (Boston) store, but with a twist–it will be slanted to mirror the angle of the two streets.
Topping of the building will be its most-viewed feature: a slightly-arched glass roof supported by steel arches, all reminiscent of the historic St. Pancras train station in London (UK). The roof will span the rear three-quarters of the retail space, providing light and an airy atmosphere to the interior space.
View aerial photos of the roof and watch a video.
These folks used a remote controlled miniature helicopter drone – with video camera – to overfly the construction. Good fracking grief!





I’m guessing if the words ‘Apple’ and ‘Fanboys’ weren’t associated with this story, it wouldn’t actually be a story at all?
