Anyone familiar with the Back Bay area of Boston should have no trouble finding this store. It officially opens at 6pm EDT. <Here are some pictures>. Wonder how much Windex they go through in a week?! laugh.gif

I think the glass stair is cool. There's one in the new performing arts center in Madison also. But, some people won't use them, my wife for one. I did notice a little perception problem looking down through my bifocals, going down. I could see the step below the one I was about to step on through the glass tread. It made my brain wonder if my foot was going to land 6" below where it did.

Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

First two have some interesting glimpses of how the glass stairwell and the floor surrounding it are supported/constructed. The last one is mostly 'noise'! Apparently, this is the first time the author has made an opening and he seems quite surprised at the happiness he encounters! dntknw.gif Obviously a Windows user! laugh.gif
