Say what you will about the way Apple is handling the iPhone 4 debacle, just don't say anything about the design of their stores. This Shanghai Apple store opened on July 10 and what a beauty she is.

(Note the similarities - glass towers and glass stairways that descend to the stores below.) The New York flagship was recently featured in New American Architecture: 10 Standout Buildings on CNN.
