Construction on Apple Campus 2 Progressing Rapidly, Walls Continue Taking Shape

[SoAnyway]

It's round!

 

[currocj]

I would love to live in one of those houses right there next to it

Got $2 million for a 1000 sq ft bungalo? It's yours.

----------

"Already priced in" as they say. I used to live in a townhouse 2 blocks further north (down in the picture). Moved out in 2012. Prior rent $2100, new rent $2700.
Rents on the apartments on pruneridge :

House prices in that area are kissing $1million.

Tagline for the site: LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE

ummmm, right. When you're paying $2.5 to $4k for condo/townhome rental, its hard to LOVE. Seriously, if you don't make bank, the Bay Area's housing costs are crippling. Unless you want to live in a dump 'down by the river' i.e. cars on lawns

They are "the perimeter walls that will house the foundation." Are you saying that isn't totally clear?

Yeah... I know what a foundation is

But there will be 2 floors of parking decks under the 4 floor of offices.

I'm guessing the giant trenches they dug will be those underground parking decks? That's what I was unsure of.

Sorry... I'm not a site engineer

Are those walls gonna be the walls in the underground parking garage?

I'm just trying to get an idea about what we are seeing in that picture.

Go to the Cupertino City Council's website to find comprehensive plans in PDF format of the whole project. Those are the walls of the two-level underground parking garage.

how long before reports of a delay because of a manufacturing problem?

lmao

Yeah I did that.

Thanks for clearing it up.

Not to worry, I was being facetious. MR's description is nonsensical.

 

[lostngone]

They told me I was getting a corner office....

You've clearly never lived near a construction site.

I wouldn't want to live there now, i meant when its done obvisouly

Worse looking crop circle, ever.

Hey is there a down vote button now? I'm seeing posts with negative ratings but I cannot find the button...

Ya there was for the first 15 mins when it posted. I think MacRumors screwed something up

 

[Bubba Satori]

its really going to be round? i thought it was a joke

There'll be a mosaic of Steve in the middle and the building will serve as a halo.

Oh thanks.

I have no idea why....traffic would be terrible.

Don't worry.. it's a spaceship, and aliens (i mean genius) working in there ride smaller spaceships to work.

 

[coder12]

When do the thrusters go in? This thing's space-ready, right?

 

[henzpwnapple]

Rumors said the iphone after iphone 6 will be rounded too.

 

[Michaelgtrusa]

I would like to know who the suppliers are.

 

[efktd]

they should build a big stature of Steve Jobs right in the middle of the whole thing. Dictator style. I think that would be more than appropriate.

 

[MMANN113]

No, you all have not figured it out yet ..

They're really going to be building a super collider, the round campus building is just a masquerade.

We've redesigned the iPhone, from the sub-atomic level up.

 

[mangonights]

Macrumors, how about an update on the new house Steve was building? What ever happened to it?

...They finished the yacht, where is it now?

 

[gavroche]

How is traffic going to be any different from when it was an HP parking lot?

Also keep in mind that Apple employs a large fleet of buses and shuttles which lowers the use of individual cars.

You both are wrong. It will be manned by Oompa Loompas. They never leave, so no commuter traffic.

 

[Tech198]

lol... nice...

There a allot of trees..

At least the auditorium should be big enough.

The guys of GenieBelt did this interesting blog post about delays: Construction problems in Apple campus 2?

I know... and you could buy new releases from their store too.
