According to the article, the way the place was laid-out makes it difficult. 
They mentioned something about windowless cubicles, being well-suited to 
labroatory use, but not for general offices. I would think that something like that 
could and maybe should be used as a data center/research facility, rather 
than just generic offices. it could also house some studio complexes, either for 
broadcast or recording. Because of the "pastoral" setting, the place sounds 
like an ideal environ for technical/engineering *creativity*. It would be 
interesting to see what eventually comes of this facility.
