Apple on Saturday opened the doors to its brand new store in Palo Alto, Calif., located just a few miles from the company's corporate headquarters.
The new Apple Store on 340 University Drive in Palo Alto drew a large crowd for its grand reopening Saturday at 10 a.m. local time. The new location has replaced the old store which was located just down the street.
The new store has about 15,000 square feet of retail space and an all-glass front that is a trademark feature of Apple's retail locations. AppleInsider readers Ben and Gavin were onhand for Saturday's festivities, and Gavin described the location as "massive."
The original Apple Store in Palo Alto was noteworthy because it was the local store of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. Jobs himself would sometimes appear at the store for product launches, including the debut of the first iPad in 2010.
Thanks to AppleInsider reader Ben for the included photos.

Steve would never . . . have let that ugly glass seam run right through the apple logo. Maybe.

Did at the 5th Avenue store. And you can tell these images were taken with an iPhone.
… they're solid walls of purple.

Well, it only "appears" to, they aren't on the same panel.
But I agree it would look better if it didn't "appear" that way.

I think you're right. He would've made them turn those two front glass panels into one huge, heavy glass panel.
