They should just keep it like this. Just a giant cube in the middle of a major city. No tables with products. No people. Just a giant Apple logo on a beautiful building
I'm guessing you've never actually seen the Fifth Avenue cube store? The tables, products and people are all below ground, so it actually does look like that. (Actually, it now has different glass panels, but otherwise it looks like that).
