Who is the current occupant of the site? A quick search says Yahoo! and Coinbase. And maybe previously WeWork, temporarily leasing from Meta?

The historical former building stood unchanged until 5-10 years ago. There was a historical plaque on that building. It has been demolished and replaced by a nameless large 5-story office building.

The new building has an elaborate plaque facing the sidewalk. It includes a railroad diagram of the many corporate spinoffs from Shockley Semi.
