Electronical Borgness

Looking East-Southeast from Shute Road

Coming back from lunch at Longbottoms today, I'm sitting at the light and I look across Evergreen Road and into Intel's Ronler Acres Campus and I see this big black building with a bunch of stuff sticking out on top. I'm sure that building has been there for years, but it's the first time I noticed it, or maybe my brain is just noticing stuff like this now. I thought to take a picture, but then I thought I can just grab a screenshot from Google's Streetview and that will be good enough.

How so some ever, I get home and dial up Streetview and there is no building. So I poked around a bit to see if Google had newer footage from other places, and these are what I found. None of them give you the feeling of how big this thing is. I may have to go back and take an actual photo.

Nobody has good photos of this place. This 3D drawing is the best of the lot, and it doesn't show much.

I can't tell whether no one is interested in this place, or whether Intel or the NSA are trying to keep it on the down low.
