It's been less than two years since Facebook moved into its 150,000 square foot office space at 1601 South California Ave in Palo Alto, but the rapidly growing company is already itching for a new home. Now we're hearing from multiple sources that Facebook has chosen the site for its new headquarters: the former Sun Microsystems/Oracle campus in Menlo Park CA, just off the Bayfront Expressway at 1601 Willow Road (map). The campus is around six miles from Facebook's current home, and is bordered by Menlo Park and East Palo Alto. The move doesn't come as a surprise. Facebook had practically outgrown its current offices on S. California Ave before it even moved in, and it's already subleased additional space at 1050 Page Mill Road,�just down the street from its current location (employees can take shuttles between the two buildings, but it's not very convenient). With over 2,000 employees and no signs of slowing, the company needs a lot more leg room.
