New Aerial Images Show Walls, Basement Appearing to Take Shape at Apple's “Spaceship” Campus in Cupertino

NBC Bay Area’s chopper flew over the site of Apple’s new Cupertino headquarters Wednesday, and it looks like construction on the so-called “spaceship” campus is humming right along.

New walls and scaffolding have popped up since a drone gave us an aerial view last month. Crews appeared to be working on what will eventually become the building’s basement, which is supposed to contain enough space to park nearly 2,400 vehicles.

The Campus 2 construction site one mile from the official Apple headquarters is private property, making it difficult for curious neighborhood residents and hardcore Appleheads on the ground to catch a glimpse of the progress made so far.

Workers broke ground on the 2.8-million-square-foot building back in November 2013. Apple has said construction is expected to be completed in 2016.

When it’s complete, Campus 2 will be home to more than 12,000 employees.
