319,000 square feet of prime Silicone Valley real estate soon to be over 1,000 housing units, a park and nearly 2000 parking spaces. This property went for nearly 200 million big ones ;)
The tenants moved in around 1969, moved out December 2018 (not renewing their lease), relocated to a smaller facility in Santa Clara, and is still thriving.
These photos are from several trips in 2019 and this site has since been demolished.
Fun facts:
Imagine a boss that brings in a film crew to catch the response of the office raffle winner...the prize being an extra $12,000 a year for TWENTY years! Extravagant Christmas parties, record setting profit sharing checks for all employees and for their 5 year anniversary in 1974 there was a huge street fair thrown for employees and their families with the company doling out TVs, BBQ grills and 10 speed bikes.
The anniversary parties became tradition.
