Apple redesigned the 5th Avenue cube last year with 15 glass panels. There used to be 90.
This stunning shot of Apple’s flagship 5th Avenue store in New York City was recently taken by Barry McLynn with a Canon EOS 60D. We’ve seen lots of shots of the new glass cube, but this one definitely takes the cake. Reminds you of what makes Apple special.

So Apple blew a truck load of money just to change the cube from 90 panels to 15? yet there are starving families in Africa looking for a dollar to live on instead of having to face death
What are you doing! Stop paying for the Internet and give that money to the starving families in Africa. And why don’t your just sell everything and move to Africa so that you can help them better.
Africa is a lost cause. The whole world has been pouring money, time, resources, and effort without limit into these countries, beyond measure, since before I was born, too absolutely no avail. We build them something, they tear it down, or dig it up to sell the scrap. We set them up a free election, and they kill each other at the polls and cut each others hands off for voting for an opposition candidate. Send them 100 tons of seed corn, and they mash it into cornmeal and eat it in 3 days. Send them a ship full of food, and it rots at the docks due to political rangling. Send them condoms and doctors and they make soccer balls from the rubbers and try to cure aids by raping a virgin, or a dwarf, or an albino. It’s 2012, and they still burn and stone people for witchcraft. They walk around naked with cut up bare feet. I bring that up and some people say it’s because of lack of resources. It’s not lack of resources. It’s lack of intelligence. If I was stuck out in the (still after thousands of years) undeveloped wilderness, I would have enough common sense to get some leaves or animal hide to cover my bleeding feet. Africa is an evolutionary dead end. They are a country that is stuck in time. Nature is trying to purge the continent, and we are just stalling the inevitable. I’m willing to help those who are willing to help themselves.Also, the RED charity is still in effect the last time I checked.

I like the old one better
“The Prettiest Picture Of The 5th Avenue Apple Store You’ll Ever See”
Really there is no chance someone might take a better picture ? Ever ?
what an idiotic title
Maybe the title should say…”One of the greatest…”
I would like to see this Apple store in person.
I wonder how often the flat top/roof needs to be cleaned? Or if it snows, how do they clean it off?
Just some random questions that come to mind.
Its a nice photo, but I wouldn’t say it’s the prettiest I’ll ever see!
Possibly the most heavily photo shopped though.
me too I want to see this in person

Not sure how this reminds me of what makes Apple special. Reflections? Reflections make Apple special?
