This is 100% a PR stunt from the edge building to get people talking and interested in the property. It's so incredibly obvious. Not sure why no one has called them on it.
Apple doesn't move into a shopping center and hope that other big retailers will move in.
They only open up near huge populated shopping areas. Especially areas where there is alot of money being tossed around by thousands of people daily. It would be if an Apple Store opened on Ave B and 10th st . Doesn't make Apple Cents. It's a 10min walk to the nearest L station. Not to mention there is an Authorized Apple Dealer and repair center 1 block away called Mikey's Hookup. I bet the Edge building is totally freaked out right now cause no retailers are interested in moving into an experimental shopping center right on the FDR highway version of Williamsburg.
