Apple is all set to open its relocated Tysons Corner store in Fairfax, Virginia, on May 19. This reopening is a momentous occasion as it marks the 22nd anniversary of the store’s original debut back in 2001.
Tysons Corner Store: Symbol of innovation and inclusivity
Located in the heart of Tysons, a suburb of Washington D.C., the store is nestled within a bustling shopping mall. Apple’s move to a different spot within the mall is more than just a geographical shift. The company asserts that the redesigned store will showcase a raft of design upgrades that echo Apple’s core values of inclusivity, innovation, and sustainability.
Apple has expressed its enthusiasm about the reopening by stating, “Since opening our first-ever Apple Store here 22 years ago, we’re proud to be opening this newly reimagined space. It’s a celebration of how far we’ve come. And we couldn’t have done it without the community.”
Reminiscing the past: The legacy of Tysons Corner Store
Tysons Corner Store holds a special place in Apple’s history. In 2001, Steve Jobs himself gave a tour of the store, revealing its design to the world. While Tysons Corner was the first Apple Store to open, given its East Coast location, it was closely followed by Apple Glendale Galleria just a few hours later.
