"Say hello to Facebook's new offices, the mostly abandoned former headquarters of Sun Microsystems.\nTomorrow, Facebook will hold a press conference to announce it has moved to Menlo Park.  The company has been based in Palo Alto since 2004, but its current campus (leased from Stanford) simply can't support Facebook's swelling ranks.\nOur sources tell us that Facebook will indeed announce it has purchased the old 57-acre Sun Microsystems campus from Oracle, which acquired Sun in 2009.  Since the acquisition, Oracle has slowly relocated members of the Sun Microsystems staff to its other offices.  Now, the former Sun campus is mostly abandoned except for a few buildings.\nFacebook is also rumored to have acquired 312 and 314 Constitution Avenue, a little less than a mile away from the main Sun Microsystems campus.  Mashable has learned that those buildings were previously owned by General Motors and are part of a larger complex owned by Tyco Electronics.  \nTyco sold the buildings to General Motors \"a long time ago,\" according to our source; but if recently filed city paperwork is any indication, Facebook is now the owner of these two buildings.  They have the potential to be used for storage, parking or servers.  We highly doubt that they would be used as office space.\nThere are still many details that have yet to be announced.  When will Facebook move its employees to Menlo Park? Will it get a special deal on property taxes in exchange for bringing more work to the city? Has it acquired any other buildings? These are things we will find out during tomorrow's press conference.\nMashable has obtained pictures of Facebook's new digs in Menlo Park.  We've put them in gallery form so you can check out the company's new home before its official announcement tomorrow.\n\n\nFacebook's New Menlo Park Campus (at Sun Microsystems)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 3\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 2\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 1\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 4\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 5\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 6\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 7\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 8\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 9\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 10\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 11\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 12\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 13\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 14\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 15\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 16\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 17\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 18\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 19\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 20\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 21\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 22\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 23\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 24\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 25\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 26\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 27\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 28\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 29\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 30\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 32\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 33\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 34\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 35\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 36\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 37\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 38\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 39\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 40\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 41\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 42\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 43\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 45\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 46\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 47\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 48\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 49\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 51\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 52\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 53\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 55\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 56\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFacebook Menlo Park Campus: 57\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
