I mentioned the Apple Store rumor to those "in the know" at Penn Square, and they confirmed that Apple was most likely coming to Penn....so the rumor site was right on! Please note that this is privileged information and shouldn't be shared with anyone. To cover mall management, I provided them with the rumor, and they just confirmed in a nonspecific manner.

The reply (I'm being non specific to protect the lease):

"Interesting... That's information that I'm not allowed to release. The
lease is still in final negotiations but it looks fairly solid. I can't
say where the store will go since it involves moving another tenant."
