❖Apple Plaza, New York, USA, 2008[open in full screen]

Previous Fremont Street, Las Vegas, USA

The glass cube entrance to the flag ship Apple store on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 59th Street, transformed this otherwise boring plaza [like most of the others in New York].

From an unremarkable skyscraper into a futuristic and lively space visited 24 hours a day. Outside almost nobody, except obviously security people, inside hundreds of Apple enthusiast.

Tip for visitors: Any computer in this Apple store is connected to the internet, useful way of communicating when needed.

Next Herald Square, New York, USA
