Apple sets sights on East Coast campus
A lot of attention has been placed on where Amazon's new facility will be. Much of that has to do with how that comany went about searching for a location. However, it seems Apple is also seeking to build a new campus, albeit much more quietly than Amazon. It is no secret that Apple is a California company, that is where it was founded and where its brand new space station campus is. Apple also has space in Texas as well. Now the company is looking to expand to the East Coast, though it is said that this new location will focus of custoemr service and technical support. The lcoation has not been decided yet, but it looks like it will be located either in Northern Virginia or North Carolina. Although Apple has started narrowing the list, there are still numerous locations to choose from and it is all speculation at this point. What is known is that it will be around 4 million square feet. Much of this appears to be office space, which makes sense when it will focus on customer service and tech support. The tech giant exepcts the site the house around 20,000 employees, which goes a long way towards fulfilling Apple's promise to invest in America and create tons of new jobs over the next five years.
