      Mark Dreger: "One of Apple’s new ‘Town Square’ designs, this is much more than a store. The latest gadgets are downstairs while the terraced upper area offers a public space to rest and look upon the Chicago River."
    • Lucille F.
      Lucille Fisher: "Stunning store in a very Chicago location-right next to the river overlooking the historic Michigan bridge. Just be careful in the winter, the stairs can be slippery & watch out for falling ice."
