The company is also inviting nearby Cupertino residents to attend a special preview on Nov. 16 between 3 and 8 p.m. Those people must show a photo ID, but can bring up to three other guests.

The Visitor Center has a gift shop, cafe, and observation deck, as well a space for an augmented reality presentation about Apple Park. It's located across the street at 10600 North Tantau Avenue.

I wonder why they made the decision to do 90% concrete/10% plant in the space around the center. I think the in-ground lighting is sort of neat (though how useful a light it would be is probably questionable), but still.

EDIT: Okay, after seeing it from it makes more sense; it’s just a small outdoor patio.

Looking forward to popping in next time I'm in the Bay Area. Possibly next year, depending on how organised and/or rich I am.

I guess it’s not top secret anymore now?

Are you sure that’s concrete? Or is it some sort of permeable ground surface, like a fine gravel that can be walked on?
