Apple's $5 billion "Spaceship" campus in Cupertino, California, almost looks like it's ready for take-off.
Construction on the project, titled Apple Campus 2, started in 2013 and planning was in the works for many years before that.
But Cupertino's city inspector said last fall that it believed the project was behind schedule, and landscaping on the project isn't supposed to wrap up until next quarter, according to the City of Cupertino.
This is Apple Campus 2 from a distance.
Here's a look a little bit closer.
The building looks almost completed! Only a few finishing touches needed.

Good thing that the project has until Q2 to finish landscaping. Here's the latest project schedule.
The auditorium is nearly finished. This is likely where Apple plans to launch the next iPhone or another upcoming product.
The parking lots are done too. Construction workers are parking in them now.
Here's a closer look. Those are solar panels on top.

Some landscaping has started. Apple has planted these trees, for example, and started to build a path.
But Apple plants trees differently than most people.
