Nokia is in cost-cutting mode right now. After announcing closure of its London Flagship store Nokia USA has announced closure of its New York and Chicago flagship stores.

I had a chance to visit the Nokia Flagship store in Chicago last year.
There are only 2 such stores in all of the USA – Chicago and New York City.
