The large store (1, 2, 3, 4) at the corner of 9th Avenue and 14th Street in the heart of the city's Meatpacking District will be spread over two levels connected by a spiral glass staircase, which is already installed (photo below).
Apple will occupy the highly-visible corner space in the store, with at least two other tenants taking up other spaces in the building. Like Apple's other stores on the island, the architecture at this location will be distinctive and won't include a stainless steel exterior. Rather, it will be mostly large framed windows and masonry.
The December 7th date was first reported by our friends over at ifoAppleStore earlier in the week. A big thanks also goes out AppleInsider reader, Eric, for snapping the below photo, and Curbed for the photo of the glass staircase (also below).

Pearl Harbor Day!
I actually enjoy the news on the new Apple stores as Apple places an emphasis on art and architecture...so few do.
I hope those 2 beautiful states get an Apple Store on every corner so no one there ever has to walk more than a block to get to Apple merchandise. They deserve it...the rest of us can just come and visit them ever once in awhile.

Yay, that day is marked on my calendar. Now I'm just waiting for one in Brooklyn. (We better get one before Queens)
I love the photo of the glass staircase - it looks like a crime scene.
