Students shouldn’t be lazy!Still not very well located. It's too far to the west. Would be nice more central near McGill College and near Eaton Centre.
Does Apple own or lease these stores in historic buildings?
The City of Montreal has destroyed downtown shopping. St. Catherine St is nothing like it was 50 years ago.
Well in that case.... thanks Kevin! Great article.Yes, tipster who sent in the La Presse article.
Like, in the back alley? 😆If you're visiting this existing store be aware there are no public washrooms. Ask the security guard nicely though and he will probably let you in the bathroom they have out back.
Apple actually does amazing jobs restoring these historic buildings (and often has to agree to restore them to original spec to get the lease in these historic locations). The tower theatre was struggling for years before being restored. For all the things Apple throws/burns its endless money at (Looking at you Apple Tv) the restoration of these buildings is actually a worthy cause (imo). Even if Apple magically goes bankrupt the historic buildings will be in much better shape and actually usable rather than if they had not been leased- which is why these cities in many cases give them the lease.This is sad... a soulless corporate entity taking over a beautiful building only to ram a bunch of brand cheerleaders gawking over shiny iphones like sheep just to fill the pockets of a THREE TRILLION DOLLAR COMPANY.
Ugh.
