Facebook 'to build luxurious $120 million housing complex for staff ' "The beauty of this thing is that it's extremely close to our campus," said John Tenanes, Facebook's director of real estate who is involved in the project, according to the Wall Street Journal. He said the development was a "five-minute bike ride" away from the office via a path that runs along the San Francisco bay, adding: "You don't even have to put on the brakes." Facebook moved its headquarters to Sun Microsystems" former campus in Menlo Park in December 2011 and will soon have an extra wing built by renowned architect Frank Gehry. Staff can help themselves to free frozen yogurt and coffee at work while some of the office walls are painted with graffiti and cartoon characters. "Facebook is a strong supporter of its local community and consistently recognised as one of the best places in the world to work," said a Facebook spokeswoman according to the San Francisco Chronicle. This project advances both goals, by providing our employees an excellent new housing option within walking distance to campus while investing in new housing opportunities in our local community.
