After tons of rumors and much anticipation, a new 17,550-square-foot, three-floor Apple store has opened on the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica. Racked photog Elizabeth Daniels snapped a quick pic of the space, which lands just in time for the finals days of holiday shopping. Per Mac Rumors, the all-glass facade mirrors Apple's new Palo Alto location and is "slightly smaller" than the store in Manhattan.
