The Apple Park is not yet finished while the company is in the process of transferring its employees to certain areas of the building. Over the course of next six months, it is said that the Cupertino giant is expected to switch over 12,000 people. It can be said that the building rests in the final stages as Apple has yet to apply some finishing touches. As of now, Apple has updated the Apple Maps backend with 3D buildings, campus walkways and other information pertaining to the Apple Park. So let's dive in to see some more details on the subject.
