Apple Park - headquarters of Apple Inc. in Cupertino, California

Apple’s new under-construction 175 acre campus, now officially named Apple Park, is nearing completion ahead of an expected grand opening next month. The latest look at the site comes today via a drone flyover courtesy of Matthew Roberts (below), which shows progress made on the site in recent weeks including continued work on landscaping, solar installations, and other finishing touches. There are even signs of life at the new campus already with office chairs, tables and other equipment being set up inside…

Apple announced that it would begin moving in employees to the site sometime next month when it officially unveiled the Apple Park name back in February, but it’s clear that the process has already started with at least office equipment. It also named the site’s underground 1000 seat auditorium the “Steve Jobs Theater,” the venue that’s expected to host future product unveilings and Apple events.

In today’s flyover, Roberts notes that office chairs and tables are now visible inside of some buildings including the R&D facility separate from the main circular building.

Apple's biggest launch in 2017 isn't a new iPhone, or a new iPad.

It's its new campus in Cupertino, California, which looks like a spaceship and reportedly cost over $5 billion to build. The project was one of the last the late CEO Steve Jobs was involved with.

Apple named the campus "Apple Park" in February and said it will open in April for employees. There will also be an Apple store on the premises and a visitor's center for non-Apple employees, although the opening date for the public hasn't been announced yet.

"The main building, parking structure, theatre and fitness center [are] under construction," a progress report delivered to the Cupertino City Council on March 7 read. "Occupancy for main building will begin in April and phased to end of 2017. Phase 2 and ancillary building expected to be completed by 2018."

Our latest look at Apple's "spaceship" headquarters comes from Matthew Roberts, a drone pilot and photographer who has been making Apple Park videos for years.

Google "Apple Park" and see the videos for yourself. All roof covered with solar panels - renewable energy.
