Yep, betting it's a "house." Apple has 2+ weeks to build a house in that box
Seriously, though, it would make sense with Homekit. People can see the iHome in action.
Got a tip for us?

Homekit
It's a model home for homekit. Good time to unveil a TV, bigger phones and a wearable. All powered by iOS.

Exclusive!
Here you are - I have some actual images of a watch made by Apple - an iWatch if you will. I've noticed that it has the inscription iMac on the face - I think this could mean that they have managed to squeeze an iMac in there too! Notice how slim and transparent (just like in iOS and Yosemite) the band is. I can't see any health sensors so they must be very well hidden. I've picked this up and its also very light.
So there you go... the iWatch!

"Attend the tale of Steven Jobs...
He served a tasteful but angry god.
What happens next, well that's the play
but he wouldn't want us to give it away..."
This is the first rumor that's ever impressed me in 8 years on this website.
Well done, MacRumors.
That's not a rumor.. I think the building is really there...
There are some thoughts that should never be thought, let alone typed out to the rest of the world.
TMI dude. TMI...
Wow. This really is pretty exciting. To build an entire building for an announcement. First page user may be onto something about this being linked to some of the new products they plan on showing off. Can you imagine the event ending with Tim walking into a makeshift living room with a 60" Apple TV?
...breathe
Im so excited, I cant even stand it. I CANT EVEN STAND IT!!!!!!!!!!!
There will be updated imacs, new mac minies, the new iwatch, the brand new larger iphone. OMG, I have to go sit down... and breathe into a paper bag - again.
I've been waiting to buy a new mac since 2013.
I'm getting dizzy...

The Flint Center of the Performing Arts is a very large theater building on the campus of De Anza College. So what "mysterious structure at the Flint Center" is MR talking about here? Is it attached to the Flint Center building? Next to it? Elsewhere on the campus?
This makes no sense.
This makes no sense.
There is never a shortage of techies that want to attend Apple events who can't because of limited numbers.
Surprise is Good
That's exactly what Steve would have done. Perhaps he's been communicating from the other side with Tim et al and that's exactly what's in store on the 9th. GO APPLE!

This reminds me of an animated video I saw a long time ago that someone made with Steve Jobs and Bill Gates:
Bill: Wh- What's That??
Steve: It's an iHouse!
Bill: But it doesn't have any WINDOWS!
Steve: EXACTLY!!
Great! You've just given Apple the perfect excuse to set up a TFR around the place, like how there are the permanent ones around Disneyland and Disney World.
Actually, now that I think about it, I could see them doing this..
BL.
What appears to be showing here is the Flint Center building wrapped with white panels, not a new building being constructed. This becomes very apparent by looking at oblique aerials of the building. Presumably the exterior of the Flint Center is being decorated for the event.
I hope so. It wouldn't be very exciting if they went with the original plan and built a fake barren wasteland with crickets and tumbleweed.
Hurry Amazon & Google!
Based upon the recent, extremely sad sales numbers for the Amazon Fire & Google products, they too better hurry to play "catch up" once again. We already know Samsung has been "sucking hind tit" in this losing battle. Hah!
