The Makerbot store in Manhattan is a huge tourist attraction in itself, and generates so much walk in traffic that Stratasys, Makerbot's parent company has decided to open a similar store in the city of Boston. The store will also start offering a 3D Printing service as well sometime in December.

Seems like these stores are great ways to spread the concept of 3D Printing into the mainstream.
