Inside Amazon’s first New York City Bookstore

Lawrence stood at the front of Amazon’s first New York City bookstore, momentarily startled by the applause.

He was the first shopper at Amazon’s newest "Amazon Books" physical retail location – and he wasn’t even shopping for books. Lawrence, who didn’t offer his last name, had basically wandered into the still unopened location during a press preview and instead of throwing him out, Amazon welcomed him as customer #1 with a round of applause. 

Lawrence later told me he “really just wanted to check out the space.”

His interest is warranted. 

All the books at Amazon Books face out to shoppers for better discoverability.
