When I worked at 1600 Plymouth and Google was looking for more space I was surprised they weren't building on the empty lot across the street. Then I walked over there between a gap in the fence and walked around. About ever 15 - 20 yards was a test well. Looking at the superfund data it was in the process of being 'remediated' which was a program where steam gets pumped into the ground to migrate chemicals out.

Part of the legacy of the 'silicon' part of silicon valley.
