An experienced construction manager, Andrew Jares Oldfield has served as a construction superintendent with Holder Construction since 2016.

As the base of operations for more than 12,000 Apple employees, Apple Park features an open-plan layout that supports collaboration between different departments. The 175-acre campus is also home to secure research and development facilities, an employee fitness center, and grounds that include walking and running paths, as well as an orchard, meadow, and pond. 

The dominant structure at the multi-billion dollar Apple Park is the ring-shaped main building, which circles more than one mile around the property and offers 2.8 million square feet of interior space. The futuristic building also features the world’s largest curved glass panels. 

In addition to the innovative architectural design and landscaping, the Apple Park campus boasts energy-efficient facilities that run entirely on renewable energy. Power for the facilities is provided by 17 megawatts of rooftop solar energy and a low-carbon central power plant located on site.
