Apple's Fifth Avenue Glass Cube Revealed

Apple unveiled its 32-foot glass cube last night at approx 7:50pm EST. Aesthetically, it's an industrial work of art, featuring a giant backlit Apple logo, glass-enclosed cylindrical elevator, and a spiral glass staircase. Lots of pics after the jump.
"Besides the unusual elevator design, and the staircase that curves downward around it, the cube has another interesting feature -- it's all open to the lower floor," Allen wrote. "That is, you can walk up to the outside glass of the cube, look through and see right down into the store itself."

Um.... I went looking and couldn't find it... Can someone tell me what road 5th Avenue is on ? I can't wait to see the replys to this. OnTopic, looks pretty cool. Apple is apparently charging too much money.

Doesn't anyone else think that eventually somebody is going to utterly destroy that? I mean it IS glass, and glass isn't known for its strength.

My god... must contact the Overlord Gates! 5th Avenue has been tainted beyond repair! The reasonable thing to do now... is purge city of LA with Microsoft's Divine Nuclear arsenal... It must be done.

Style over content, augmented by a rip-off of an earlier and better design by another company. The ethos of Apple.
