Can anyone answer her question? She is particularly interested in the years
1957-1962 when Building 014 was being built and then opened.

Subject: Question
I found the Classic Tech Publication website with many
interesting
articles. I am preparing a historical and architectural evaluation of
the Advanced Research Building 025 on the IBM Cottle Road Campus as
part of an EIR for the site. The majority of the campus was included in
the sale of the IBM Hard Disk Drive Unit to Hitachi, however this
building was excluded. It is proposed for demolition and the site to be
redeveloped. The building has architectural significance as one of the
finest examples of the Modern Industrial style (1940-1985) in San Jose.
The question that has not been adequately answered is what research or
prototype occurred in this building. It is suggested that the flying
head research was done in this building. The building was designed for
Reynold Johnson's design team which moved from 99 Almaden in San Jose.
Can you direct me to information that would identify the research
conducted in this building?
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
