Did they solve the bed-bug problem?

That's a New York problem. In my last time there, I saw a bed bug crawling on a wall in the subway and on a bench in Battery Park and I was there only there for 3 days that time. I thoroughly check my room at every hotel I stay at, no matter how clean and luxurious. Everything in my luggage gets heat bombed when I come home to Toronto.

Thank the maker for that elevator...Not walking up or down those stairs. The plaza around the Cube looks lovely.

I'll wait until the iPhone 11 frenzy dies down before I visit though, and I will still go earlier in the morning.

I haven't been to Milan for a long time, but most European cities are really quiet at night. Everything closes. The subway closes, too, around midnight I think?
There's hardly people on the streets.
A 24/7 store might make sense in NYC. But not many other cities.

That’s why I thought it was odd. I swear the initial articles said it’s open 24/7 Lol that’s crazy.

Would love to know if they sell Apple SWAG like the main store does. It would be so worth the trip if they did.

They do not. I assume by “main store” you mean the one in the visitor center.

Yep. New York gets too many bed-buggy tourists.

Well....

I just came from there.

Only one table with iMacs (No Mac Mini, LG displays or Mac Pro (I understand the MP)) and two tables with laptops.

Everything else iDevices. Sure, it's phone launch time, but the store feels even colder than before.

Oh well.
