New Apple Park drone footage shows more landscaping, lights on in Steve Jobs Theater
A newly-published video shows that while construction and landscaping work is at an advanced stage at Apple Park, it remains underway, particularly at some satellite buildings including the Steve Jobs Theater.
Sunset drone footage by Duncan Sinfield offers a glimpse at the entrance to the Theater with its lights on. Construction equipment still sits around and inside -- the Theater itself is located underground, and will eventually be able to hold 1,000 people once finished.
Since video released at the beginning of the month, landscaping has expanded further, particularly in the courtyard space within the main ring. Work on planting trees and other vegetation will likely extend past when offices are completed.
Other shots in the video show in the inside of the main ring's atrium, and associated buildings on the opposite side of the street, where construction is not only unfinished but still employing cranes -- equipment that has long vanished from the ring structure.
Apple staff have been gradually moving into Apple Park during the past few months. The transition is likely to continue for some time, at some point bringing executives like CEO Tim Cook over from 1 Infinite Loop. The complex will ultimately play home to some 12,000 workers.

Though I wonder about the noise with a thousand people in there… Glass all around (pretty amazing design) and I’d guess thin carpeting above concrete means the ceiling would be the only place for soundproofing.
There is no natural lighting in the auditorium. The circular building visible in the drone footage is the ground level lobby/foyer, sort of like the NYC 5th Avenue "Cube" lobby, but with no light going below.
It is unlikely that the auditorium foyer will have carpet. That would be very un-Steve-like.
2) If your comment is a reply to Tallest Skil, I believe his statement is referring to the lobby of the auditorium and a presumption that when people leave a presentation there will be display of the upcoming products. I never really thought about it, but they probably would want to showcase the physical products, some under glass and others as hands-on demos, like they have in years past. Natural lighting from between noon and 1pm sounds like a great time for the products to be showcased in that lobby.
I guess you could always put up some aluminum foil.
