Apple Planning Expansion to Seven-Building Sunnyvale Campus

Wednesday May 21, 2014 5:53 pm PDT by Husain Sumra
Apple has agreed to lease a new seven-building campus in Sunnyvale, CA, where it could move up to 1,450 employees, according to the San Jose Mercury News.

In the most recent expansion, Apple intends to occupy a 290,000-square-foot office complex known as Sunnyvale Crossing that is near the corner of Central Expressway and North Wolfe Road. Menlo Park-based Lane Partners bought the complex and then proceeded with a renovation to transform the decades-old buildings into a state-of-the-art office center.
According to city records, Apple is currently only listed as a tenant in one of the buildings, but plans to occupy the six other buildings as well. Additionally, building permit applications have been filed for all seven of the buildings for "interior improvements", though those must be approved by Sunnyvale's city planning commission.

The new Sunnyvale campus is yet another part of Apple's plan for expansion, alongside a new two-building Santa Clara campus that would hold 1,200 employees and Apple's already iconic Spaceship Campus, which will hold around 14,000 employees and is currently under construction.

lol!


I love that mac rumors has become a bit of a joke now.

I feel like we should have an 'iphone mock up' round up page, and also a separate 'mock up' buyers guide since they are being written about just as much as actual products.

A lot of building, buying and spending… :eek:
I don't see enough developing, creating and improving
Is Apple the next RIM?


Yeah definitely. Both based fruits so definitely a sign of ruin.

Damn... that's a lot of employees.

14,000 at the Spaceship
1,450 in Sunnyvale
1,200 in Santa Clara

How many employees are at 1 Infinite Loop right now? And how many will stay there instead of going to the Spaceship or other locations?


Most of Cupertino and a big part of Sunnywale are already covered by Apple buildings. Infinite Loop accommodates only a fraction of their employees in Santa Clara Valley.

Sure Mr. Shareholder. Google and others keep their employees in tents ;)

“Randy, the **** pool is getting full. We better strain it before it overflows and causes a *****lide that could cover this entire community. I will not have a Pompeiian catastrophe happening in Sunnyvale.”
