Hello all!Decided to make this thread as there is no other threads dedicated to these facilities. And a place to post my pictures. I recently went on a road trip through Washington, stopping by the spacex offices in Redmond, aswell as a warehouse where starlink satellites are alegedly being tested and built. Images attached below! (Taken on a Sunday so not much going on.)Thanks all!-SpaceBird
I was by the SpaceX Redmond building a couple of times last week. The parking lot was empty, even on a weekday.Very unlike when I was there in April 2018: parking lot crowded and full, both early and late!(I have photos from both times, if there is any interest.)

The new SpaceX Redmond facilities seems to be about three buildings. And they span both sides of the Triumph building.At the first building (22908 NE Alder Crest Dr), following a sign, and instructions, to get to shipping and receiving, I went across the entire Triumph parking lot to get to a couple other SpaceX buildings, also on Alder Crest Drive. ... then I got chased away by a polite guy wearing dark clothes with a radio mic on his sweater. He suggested pictures were not allowed.
We all should always honor requests like that, it makes it better for everyone if SpaceX fans don't get the 'foamer" reputation that some railfans got ... stay out of parking lots and private property unless invited.
