Brand New Apple Store Opens in Downtown Brooklyn

At 10am this morning, Apple opened it’s second Brooklyn location.  ‘Downtown Brooklyn’ is located directly next to the Barclays center.  The place is beautiful.  There were 50 people on line at 8am, but by 10am the line was around the block.

Didn’t notice any upper management Apple employees on hand.  Whereas, Angela Ahrendts was at the World Trade Center Oculus opening.

The usual private security firm was there.  They’ve been using the same company for as long as I can remember.  I recognize the faces.

I’m in Times Square New York when Floyd Mayweather’s Monstrous Fleet of SUVs Rolled up

Floyd Mayweather’s TMT SUVs rolled up in front of the Chase Bank at 3 Times Square this afternoon.  Cops didn’t know about it and quickly ticketed the vehicles.  A huge crowd of people quickly gathered.  Tourists had difficulty getting by.  Floyd left the bank after approx 20 mins, wearing a white hoodie so you could barely see his face.

Apple Store Fifth Ave Renovations

Apple has begun renovations and temporarily moved it’s Fifth Ave New York City store to the old FAO Schwartz building (which is behind it).

Over the coming weeks, workers are going to completely dig up the area surrounding Steve Job’s glass cube.  If you’ve ever been in the store, you’ve noticed the ceilings are very low.  The renovations consist of digging the floor three feet deeper and expanding the back of the store into what is currently a parking garage.

The renovations will take over two years…which means that tourists and nearby employees will need to find a new place to eat lunch.
