CB2 opened this past weekend at 1010 Midtown, so I went with a friend to check out the new store. CB2 is the first major retail shopping component to open its doors at the massive 12th & Midtown complex (located a few blocks from Piedmont Park). If you are thinking it’s more of the same items sold at Crate & Barrel, think again. CB2 is a younger, fresh and has a different attitude. I found quite a few things I’d like to buy! They has some great acrylic pieces, interesting mirrors, chic lighting and so much more. The people who works there are very friendly and go out of their way to help you.
I’m hoping 12th & Midtown will get some major players to open up shop in the building. I’d love to see Apple open a Midtown location on the corner! (You know they are going to open a store in Midtown at some point). Did you check out CB2? What did you think?
If you like the idea of living in the middle of everything, you should check out 1010 Midtown.
CB2 looks good, and certainly adds a nice little touch to 12th & Midtown and the Midtown Mile, hopefully more will come soon. I’m SO with you on an Apple Store too! It’s inevitable. A large two story flagship location would be great over there and that would make a huge difference on that strip.
