Apple is working pretty hard lately on creating and opening new Apple Stores around the globe. While the rumors of the Apple Store that was going to be located in the Nevada Shopping Center in Granada are disappearing, those of a new Apple Store located in Washington DC are increasing, for which they would have chosen an emblematic place of the city that they would not leave indifferent to any inhabitant of the city. The first rumor about this new Apple Store arrived at the beginning of the year, but the latest movements seem to definitively confirm the situation.
Apple intends to "renovate" this 113-year-old building, located on one of the most central streets in Washington DC. To do this, it will make heavy previous investments, in addition to the new lease, and we remember that Apple does not have the habit of buying the places where the Apple Store is located, he tends to rent them, in case they must abandon the ship before it sinks.
The new Apple Store would have a design very similar to the last one opened in San Francisco and also in London, with the collaboration of Foster & Partners. It is clear that Apple wants to take advantage of a place like this:
The talks between the competent authority and Apple are well advanced, however, the terms of the rent have not yet been specified, at least until the Board finishes the vote on the matter.
This new addition is going to bring the Carnegie Library back to life, which has been quite paralyzed for years. Apple is investing tens of millions of dollars to restore this building so that we will be able to offer a new service to our 700.000 residents and 20 million residents. Of course, the agreement will include an educational component - Max Brown
Everything definitely indicates that the next Apple Store will arrive in Washington DC in about a year.
