I took a 737 in there back in December, prior to the grounding, and it looked just like that. I think that might be the normal production line. They had them lined up in various stages of finish waiting for interiors, paint, etc. It was pretty impressive taxiing by that long line of 787s painted in the colors of airlines from all over the world.

My hangar is right in the middle of the first photo. The field has looked like this for the last couple years with the 787's and 747-8's parked on the diagonal runway. The 777's are typically parked on the north ramp adjacent to the factory. This isn't unusual. Most of the 787's are incomplete (no engines) so they can't get too far from the factory.
