7 West 34th Street

Back in the fall, reports were rampant that Amazon.com would open a physical store in midtown Manhattan in time for the holiday rush. The online giant had rented space across from the Empire State Building, according to reports, with plans to open a space that would double as a store and mini depot where select orders could be picked up and returned. But with the holiday season in full-swing, there's no Amazon storefront on W. 34th St. — and it doesn't appear any is likely in the near future.
