From what I understand, and I am not speaking officially, Ampex did consider moving the sign but Hayward wouldn't allow it. Too tall or something. FYI, Ampex Data Systems was bought from Ampex Corporation by Delta Information (https://www.delta-info.com/).

Its been there at least the 24 years I've lived in the Bay Area and is still up despite the demise of the company and the replacement of the campus with new office buildings. It's even lit up at night. I guess the city of Redwood City has declared it some kind of historic landmark. Am I right that AMPEX is out of business or is there still some remnant division left? Pardon the "regional" post. Kahuna |
