Apple has removed the curtain and revealed the new Upper West Side Retail Store to the public.

ifoapplestore describes the store as "a single, stone-walled room lit by ceiling lights at night, and flooded with sunlight during the day. Besides the ground-level space with four rows of display tables, there is spiral glass staircase leading down to a lower level, presumably the same size as the 8,500 square-foot main level. The size and scale of the store, and the amount of stone that was used both eclipse any previous Apple store project. The only stainless steel visible is on the huge backlit Apple logo suspended from the inside ceiling."

The store’s grand opening is set for 10 a.m. Saturday. ifoapplestore notes that in the past celebrities have been invited to the New York grand openings, lured with promises of free Apple merchandise. It’s even possible that the opening will see invitees from the world of stage arts due to the store's close proximity to the Lincoln Center.
