I took some photos today of the much anticipated Apple Store, Fifth Avenue. Check out my flickr set.

Here’s just a few things to note about the grand opening:

  • The opening will be May 19th at 6:00 p.m. (EST)
  • Apple will be giving away a MacBook every hour for 24 hours straight (See you there at 4:00 a.m.?)
  • The first 2,500 customers will receive a commemorative T-shirt
  • The store will be open 24 hours a day and 365 days a year
  • BusinessWeek reports that the 10,000 square foot facility could easily clear $40,000,000 per year

For more cool facts and pictures, check out the BusinessWeek slideshow called “Apple in the Big Apple“.
