Apple Backs Out of Plans for Grand Central Terminal Retail Store

But according to a new report from The New York Observer, Apple has backpedaled from those plans in the face of logistical issues and other constraints.
Apple's plans to bring the world's largest iStore to Grand Central always seemed to defy laws of taste, landmarks preservation and possibly even physics.
Apparently, Apple has reached the same conclusion, because an anonymous source close to the M.T.A. has confirmed that the company has backed out of plans to bring computers to commuters in an 16,000-square-foot store on the balconies of Grand Central's main terminal.

...because the Starbucks and Rite Aid in GCS are so tasteful? What?
It's a wonder any business can afford major construction or renovation in NYC with the unions, taxes, etc.
most of the best buy's here see more business in July than suburban best buys in december
On a side note, my source was better than the New York Observer, and confirmed that negotiations were in the process of taking place, but that nothing has yet to be confirmed. Take this article, as well as my comment as a rumor, since that is precisely what they are. Odds' still remain that the deal is in the process of being negotiated. Until an official statement is made, don't believe anything. There is a reason this website is called MacRumors, and not MacPressRelease.
