“Apple will finally open its Americana retail store this Saturday at 10AM Pacific time, the company’s website reveals,” MacNN reports.
“The outlet is notable mainly because of its location in Glendale, California, just 600 feet from another Apple Store in the Glendale Galleria,” MacNN reports. “The distance represents the smallest gap between Apple Stores anywhere in the world, but may be necessary since the Galleria location — Apple’s second ever built — is reportedly full of visitors at all hours.”

you are really going to have to zoom in a lot in a google search to resolve those two locations.
The Glendale Galleria and Americana are different shopping areas- both are flooded with people and the Apple Store is busy whatever time you go.
Starting to sound like Starbucks in Glendale.
wow Apple doing coffee fantastic !
Soon they’ll have to start opening 2 or 3 Starbuck’s inside every Apple store.
I remember when the Glendale store opened and you could just walk in and there were maybe a dozen people. Bought my first OS X mac back then – Powermac G4.
Sadly Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, is still left out in the cold.
you can always drive to albuquerque! maybe if they kept the original name they would have a store. does las cruces or el paso have a store? i can’t remember.
El Paso is getting a store, I think opening later this year. Las Cruces? Are you kidding? They don’t deserve no stinking Apple Store.
Well, that’s a rather assholish thing to say of that town. What if they could support a store? Dick.
Excuse me, troll? Have you ever actually been to las cruces?
Yes, I have. Lived in Albuquerque and have been many times. What’s your point?
But you get to see Bob Barker every year at the parade, and that is worth nearly as much as an Apple store!
Well kinda.
Well, that’s the consequences….
And I thought the downtown Palo Alto store and the “mini-store” in Stanford Shopping Center were close (probably about a mile). “600 feet” is a typical city block.
It’s true. The Galleria store is a complete zoo every time you go. Wall to wall people.
Apple Store (and ‘stoer’) has achieved Super Retail Density: Mega-sales wherever you open your tent.
I went to the Galleria store opening on May 19, 2001. I was so happy then that Apple chose a location close to my home (50 miles away). Now I have the Simi Valley and the Thousand Oaks stores which are closer.
Ten years ago. My how time flies.
Is Microdolts going to build their thrift store next to Apple there? Isn’t that Ballsmer directive of late?
They really need a bigger store in San Francisco – even though it is supposedly a flagship store it is small and always wall to wall people..
Maybe Microsoft can squeeze a store in between them, a “twofer”.
There’s 3 stores in Las Vegas on the Strip within 3 miles of each other.
