Apple's Flagship Tower Theatre Store Opening in LA on June 24

Apple has been working on an Apple Store at the iconic Tower Theatre in LA for a long time now, and the brand new location is set to open later this month on June 24.

Apple Tower Theatre may be the first shop in downtown Los Angeles, and it's found in L.A.'s historic Broadway Theater District. This location was the city's retail hub for the first half of the twentieth century, and is currently home to twelve theater locations.

From the beginning, Apple has envisioned the Tower Theatre store as one of the world's most prominent Apple retail locations, and Apple has been overhauling the inside of the building to turn it into retail space and a dynamic community area. Apple shared a rendering of what Tower Theatre might appear to be back in 2018.

The redesign preserves the ornate Renaissance Revival design of the inside of the theater, that was originally built to mimic the Paris Opera House with French, Spanish, Moorish, and Italian elements.

As with all retail locations, Tower Theatre will host free Today at Apple Sessions, and the location includes a Forum and a Video Wall to facilitate interaction, according to 9to5Mac's Michael Steeber.

Prior to Apple's restoration of the positioning, Tower Theatre was in disrepair, which explains why it took Apple such a long time to refurbish it. Apple used original Tower Theatre blueprints and photographs to revive original theater elements like murals, decorations, and the leaded-glass window over the entrance.

Apple has taken on other major restoration projects and those locations have grown to be major flagships with some of the most memorable and iconic store designs. Included in these are Covent Garden, the Opéra store in Paris, Apple Kurfürstendamm in Berlin, Apple Amsterdam built-in the famous Hirsch building, Apple's Grand Central store in New York, and the Carnegie Library store in Washington, D.C.
