The Galleria Apple Store at 2pm (below)
The new Americana Apple Store at 2pm (below)
So even though a brand new, much larger Apple store is just a 5 minute walk away, the Galleria store was still massively crowded! The Americana store was also crowded, though not to the incredible density of the Galleria. Both pictures were taken within ten minutes.

I forgot my regular camera at home, so crappy photos via iPhone 3GS are appropriate!
Maybe consumers don't know about the new store... can't imagine being at the Galleria, when you can be shopping @ the outdoor Americana... or maybe the heat???
I think it was the heat. Pretty hot out there. The Galleria seemed extremely busy today.
I still wonder how long we'l have two stores in close proximity. Wonder when the Apple Store's Galleria lease expires...
Yes, what's the logic of keeping both Apple Stores open?
It'll be really interesting to see if they leave both stores open and if they both thrive. After all both malls seem to do well.

I doubt they will close the Galleria store in the near future. It's officially Apple Store 001, and has somewhat of a cult following among Apple fanboys/girls
And is apparently still printing money.
Hello! The Americana store has been open for some time now and most everyone I talk to knows it is there. Here's the thing - BOTH STORES are still PACKED every time I go past either one of them at any given time. EVERY TIME. It is just the Brand I think. Apple has got it going on! It's like having a Starbucks on every corner, but now we'll have Apple Stores everywhere! LOL I love it, personally - I can go to either when I am at either location. It's wonderful!
