Microsoft reimagines its corporate home
Seattle PI | at | by Mike
Microsoft's plan to redevelop its Redmond campus, more than merely adding new buildings, would significantly reshape major portions of the software giant's sprawling corporate home.
Internal company documents describe an extensive series of potential changes -- including plans to redesign key campus entrances, replace surface lots with parking structures, establish a centralized campus traffic circle, and create new internal roadways to cross and connect different parts of the campus.
The documents identify the structures slated for eventual demolition. And they address some potentially controversial aspects of the development plan, such as the company's proposal to ultimately put new buildings on the existing sports fields at the center of the main campus.
