Shows what some people don't know / think they know. Those that don't live in the DC area are quick to judge......the DC suburbs are just like any other. Also, please look up the definition of suburb. They can span miles outside of a city limit. All cities have violent sections vs. non violent ones. Tysons Mall is quite far from DC proper, for the record. Also....it's changing locations within the same mall. I've been there recently, I work about a mile away from Tysons.....the location is more or less moving due to remodeling / renovation. Has nothing to do with violence. Before you post something general about a place you seem not to know, check your info sir / ma'am.
Steve, nor Tim, can control an environment they don't own that's being renovated.
It's literally moving a floor up and across the hallway from the original location. Last time I checked, one part of a mall is no less safe than another. If you don't have time to read the article, don't comment on it.
I think it's actually on the same level as the original store has always been, but yes, in a different hallway.
They are correct. The store is in the spot that will be under construction, adjacent to it. Tysons Mall is gonna have two high-rise buildings built right into the parts of the mall. One luxury apartment building next to Bloomingdales and another 40 stories office building in the spot where Lord&Taylor used to be. Apple is moving, because they would be literally in the construction zone, and the space is always extremely crowded.
Yeah but “a new chapter” is opening between
Nespresso and Victoria's Secret!
Now sugar-babies can get their Sugar Daddies to take them to get a new iPhone and MBP and get their lingerie shopping all at the same time. Then Sugar Daddies can drink up an Espresso and get ready for what comes next.
Like seriously WHOM at Apple thought a location next to Victoria Secret was a GOOd idea!? Kinda goes against everything Apple is about does it not? Am I alone in thinning this location is absurd especially if the move in the same mall could’ve been easily done anywhere else in that city!?
Thanks for sharing. Strange that this is an app vs just a series of high quality videos but I’ll try it out. Hope it doesn’t have that recent malware in it. Always found it odd for TGE stores having plank ceilings & what purpose that served??
Being an Apple user in general used to feel like this, when the userbase was 100x smaller.
I’ve never been to an Apple Store. The closest one is hours away.
I have been to most of the ones around here except the wonderful one in the historic Carnegie Library building in DC; one of these days I'll get down there! Every time I travel, if there happens to be an Apple Store in the area to which I'm going I try to take a little time to visit that store, too.
Do you not know what the phrase "I'll take that bet" means? I'm willing to bet money AGAINST that guy's assertion that the original location was unsafe.
Ignore the troll - DanDaBomb is literally new account that has posted nothing but 3 messages about "thieves" and "danger". While, like you said, ignoring the fact that the store move is literally from one side of the mall to the other.
Same here. I like how Apple manages to keep historic facades, such as Covent Gardens, or interesting architecture such as the one in Chicago on Michigan. Dubai’s has a great view.
I need to get back on the road, again; before they roll me up and smoke me when I die…
How did this happen 2 times in the comments? Lol. People ready to jump, without even knowing what they are talking about. Weird. I thought it was a pretty common phrase, but even if its not, if you just stop to think about it for a second… someone offered a bet, and you took it… seems pretty obvious that you are betting against each other, not agreeing.
Sorry you had to explain this twice to people that are too triggered to think about something rationally before running to comment back. Same as the guy who didn’t read the article. People are so weird and kinda scary these days.
Tell me about it. The first guy was fine, because he misunderstood and politely "corrected" me. But the other guy pulled the ol' internet smart guy "you didn't read the article" schtick, and that's just embarrassing when he clearly didn't understand a common turn of phrase, lol.
Also, you don't even have to read the article to be pretty damned sure that they weren't moving due to crime. You just have to have a passing knowledge of Tysons Corner. It's basically if Disney Springs (the retail shopping area of Disney World) were teleported into a wealthy Northern VA suburb.
Yup. It's come a long way from when Mr Tyson was postmaster and owned the land, and, IIRC, a general store there.
