Apple retail chief Angela Ahrendts was on hand to walk journalists through some of the new features installed in the store, including a 50-foot green wall accessible through a second set of doors that open out onto an area Apple has nicknamed "The Plaza." Included in this area is seating for 200 people and a fountain created by sculpture artists Ruth Asawa, positioned front and center. Apple agreed to incorporate the fountain, which has long been located in that spot, as part of the redesign. The Plaza will feature a regular weekend series of acoustic performances.
