Facebook's 2000 employees will soon be moving soon from offices in Palo Alto to the former Sun Microsystems building in suburban Menlo Park. In a bid to "friend" its new community, Facebook hosted an urban design charrette, or intensive group design workshop, to brainstorm ideas for making connections and improvements to the Menlo Park neighborhood. Bryn Garrett is a USC architecture student who took part in the day of activities.
