No doubt readers of MacUser would welcome an Apple Store to their neck of the woods—I know I’m hoping for an Apple Store in Center City Philadelphia, myself. However, it looks like residents of Manhattan’s SoHo aren’t too thrilled with their friendly neighborhood Apple Store.
Sean Sweeney, the SoHo Alliance Director, sent a strongly-worded letter to Manhattan’s borough president, which Curbed has reprinted for our enjoyment.
Sweeney lists a number of grievances with the Apple Store that could annoy even the most tolerant of individuals:
After reading the letter, in full, I am siding with the addled residents of SoHo on this one. Come on, Apple, you can be a better neighbor than that! Perhaps you should think about giving everyone in the neighborhood a cup of sugar…or an iTunes card valid for a free download of the Jonas Brothers’ newest release. That oughta soothe some nerves.

They should be happy it wasn't the Backstreet "Boys".
Or.... you could all stop being a bunch of crybabies and find something better to complain about...
Come on--some of these items happened 6 years ago! And someone is just now complaining?
As I write this on my Mac, do you guys condone Apple's stuffing 450 pre-teen girls into a space that is legal for 60?
I've been by that store at night and it is bad. There's constantly trash in front of the store and cigarette butts everywhere. They have a right to complain.
