I notice that in Google Maps, the building that is catercorner to HQ and South of the new parking garage is labeled as "SpaceX Tooling."https://www.google.com/maps/place/SpaceX/@33.920291,-118.3263875,18z/Also, this morning Musk said on Twitter that construction would begin on a tunnel across from his office. My guess is that is a pedestrian tunnel under Crenshaw from the parking garage to the HQ building.

This photo show that the SpaceX parking structure was originally planned to have a walk bridge over Crenshaw but they may have decided that the first returned F9 1st stage is too good to passed up as a trophy so they had to settle for tunnel instead?

I think Elon is serious about the tunnel business.

Well, how otherwise would he get the big spaceship from the factory to the docks?
Has anyone been farming the CAD (county tax) files for purchases of land around the facilities?
Couldn't that be CRS-9 being retrofitted? We haven't seen it being transported but it must be in work already.
