SAN JOSE — Apple has begun to set up shop at its emerging tech campus in North San Jose, an expansion that is poised to bring hundreds of workers to the city.
The company moved workers into an office building at 2509 Orchard Parkway in late 2025 and has launched preparations to place more employees at a nearby office building at 2325 Orchard Parkway, the company told this news organization.
“We’re thrilled to continue to invest in our teams in San Jose and across the Santa Clara Valley,” said Kristina Raspe, Apple’s vice president of Global Real Estate and Facilities. “Like all Apple facilities, our new workspaces on Orchard Parkway are designed to support innovation and collaboration as our teams work to create the best products and services for customers here in California and around the world.”

The buildings together total nearly 500,000 square feet and are highly visible from and near the interchange of U.S. Highway 101 and State Route 87.
Several hundred Apple team members are working in the 2509 Orchard Parkway offices, Apple said. The building totals 199,200 square feet, according to PropertyShark.
“Apple has consistently been savvy about managing its office footprint,” said Bob Staedler, principal executive with Silicon Valley Synergy, a land-use consultancy. “The company takes a long-term view and uses its cash strategically, even during downturns.”
Sometime in February, Apple will move more teams into the 2325 Orchard Parkway office building. This structure totals 290,600 square feet, PropertyShark estimates show.
The two North San Jose buildings include both office spaces and lab space to support Apple’s ongoing and expanding research and development activities, according to the company.
Cupertino-based Apple’s moves in San Jose extend what has become several months of real estate expansions in the South Bay.
Apple is also in discussions to rent multiple office buildings in Sunnyvale, primarily through subleasing agreements for office sites, according to several sources familiar with the company’s endeavors regarding those properties.
By mid-December, Apple’s shopping spree for office buildings in the South Bay had topped $1.1 billion in Santa Clara County over the final six months of 2025.
“Apple has continued to act decisively, positioning itself well for the next cycle,” Staedler said.
