The building was formerly a corporate hub for GoDaddy. If you have ever visited, you might recall a large indoor slide, as well. I remember when they opened, the amenities were well received by their employees.
Earlier this year a major CHIPS and Science Act announcement was made. This announcement shared the news of a major national semiconductor R&D facility coming the the ASU Research Park. This development is expected to bring hundreds of jobs and billions of dollars in investment to the area.
