Ah! So crazy this store is finally opening! I used to work in the Wrigley Building right across from this Apple Store up until 3 months ago.. watching it go up was so fun. The window to my office was right across the street. The roof is made of huge sheets of carbon fiber... it's pretty incredible.
Thanks for this update! I'm actually going back to my old office in two weeks and can't wait to see the new Apple Store up and running!
Yeah. It's amazing. to see someone have a eye on this store. The scene you are describing is really great. to see someone building in front of your eyes and when its is near to opening, you will be shifted to old office. Sad.
