Remember in Jurassic Park when the kid notices the water glass start to shake, and all of a sudden we realize it's because a T. Rex is approaching? That's pretty much what's happening in Times Square, where new signage indicates that the city's largest Forever 21 (bigger than all three existing ones combined) is about to touch down. Writes a tipster, "Yesterday in Times Square the new sign above the Forever 21 store was on display. Seems like it has a big LCD/LED screen. Cindy and Gaga look, errrr, thrilled at what's to come." Last we heard, the store was opening the second week of June, so its arrival seems right on schedule.
