Apple's third campus has been completed: Or will be used for automotive R&D

Many of my friends know that Apple has an old Infinit Loop in Cupertino. In recent years, they have built a world-renowned Apple Park. However, they actually have a large-scale campus called Apple Campus 3 (General Everyone calls it AC3). This park is also nearing sunset and will soon be put into use.

AC3 is located on the corner of Central Expressway and Wolff Road in Sunnyvale, Calif., also known by many as 'Central and Wolfe'. However, compared to Apple Park and Infinit Loop, which are closely linked together, The AC3 is a bit out of the way. It is about 10 kilometers away from the two seniors. It takes at least an hour to get from AC3 to the other two campuses, so Apple will still provide shuttle services for its employees.

However, the distance between AC3 and the train station is even closer, so it is very convenient for employees living in San Francisco and San Jose to go to AC3.

From the latest pictures, AC3 is doing the final closing work. Cranes and other equipment have been transferred from the site, and most of the greening work has been completed. Apple Park is designed by Apple, but AC3 is contracted to HOK. , Level 10 Construction and other studios and builders completed the construction period is also shorter, from 2015 to now less than 3 years.

In terms of appearance, the AC3 is also a typical round glass style. It is connected by three parts. Compared with Apple Park, it is more like an office building. Of course, it looks cheaper. The upper layer of AC3 is office space. There is a large parking lot below and behind the building. It is speculated that the building will be a research institute for Apple Automotive related projects. The project is named Titan.

It is reported that after the completion of the AC3, Apple's three major campuses will accommodate much more employees than before. Many previously scattered research institutes will also move back to Cupertino. Apple Park has already entered a number of secrets. R & D personnel, AC3 will also welcome new employees soon.
