In Duncan Sinfield's drone video, workers are seen installing rocks within the inner fountain of the main "Spaceship" building. After months of construction, the fountain finally saw noticeable progress in the first drone video update of 2017, earlier in January.
Although construction is nearing completion, canopies still remain uninstalled on the windows of certain sections of the main building to provide easy crane access for workers. Elsewhere on the campus, the research and development facility is also approaching completion, greenery continues to sprout up around the site, including now over the underground tunnels, and solar panel installation continues on the roof of the campus.
Matthew Roberts' drone video estimates that solar panel progress is around 70 percent complete, while noting that most of the site is still filled with water and mud from the storms that hit the area in previous weeks. Finishing touches around the campus include a paved parking lot for the front of the R&D building, lamps lining the sidewalk behind the same building, and walkways forming around the campus.
Since the garages are complete, workers have also begun to use the structures to park when arriving at the site each day. Roberts' video notes that finishing touches are being put on some of the Spaceship's canopies, while the last section -- where the cranes are in place -- will be raised into place. The large retractable doors on the main atrium section of the building are also said to be looking "as good as ever," following glass installation back in November.

The same could be said about anything when in comparison to something else. Building A is nicer than Buidling B because of X reasons why because of location, design, technology, etc. This type of architecture stands out, being the amount of engineering behind it. And it's gaining attention, because it is Apple.
Everyone has a different perception of how they view architecture and a building of this magnitude, without fully seeing how is encompassed in person.
Also, just because you see a few aerial shots of a Macrumors posts does absolutely nothing in terms of what it looks like in person. If either of you were granted a private tour of the internal/external of the Space Ship, then I would be interested in hearing your opinions of what this actually looked like. Until then, "Its just another building" sounds closed minded and viewing this in a "Meh" type of attitude. Which is fine, but others may not share your view points. To each their own.
You can say what you want but I am sure most people prefer this one.
This looks so much better.
And lots more engineering.
And yes, it"s an office building too.
