    I have a question about well water. At 8606 Almeda Genoa we have well water and was told that the well water is contaminated, It tasted of sulfur but I was told it was poison. Please contact me asap as this is a business and I would like to make it safe. Thank You.

    The old part is crappy and the new part it nice but still crappy (cheap supplies used). Crime is moderate.
  • Boeing-McDonnell Douglas Tower II, Greg (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    (Rats, I can't just edit my former comment.) When this building was first built, this was the end of the northern end of Space Center Blvd. You can see how much the neighborhood has grown with the extension of the road!
  • Jacobs Engineering Group, Greg (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    This building at the corner of Bay Area Blvd and Space Center Blvd was orginally built circa 1982 by Singer/Link, the company that built the simulators for the Gemini, Apollo, and Space Shuttle program. After several corporate acquisitions and contract changes, it was eventually leased to Jacobs Engineering to house the engineers who (in 2008) support technical work at the Johnson Space Center on the Engineering & Sciences Support Contract
  • Boeing-McDonnell Douglas Tower II, Greg (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    Boeing Tower II was originally built by McDonnell Douglas (and known as McDonnell Douglas Tower II) after McDonnell Douglas won the contract to Work Package of the space station. The buildings now housing the Sonny Carter Training Facility were originally the Light Manufacturing Facility that would have done the final assembly on the external truss modules of the space station. After NASA changed the space station contracts and awarded the entire integration work to Boeing, the buildings became government surplus property, NASA decided to use the empty buildings to house the new water tank, which became known as the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory. McDonnell Douglas merged with Boeing in 1997 and the name of the building changed to match the name of the newly reorganized Boeing Company. Today (2008) it still houses hundreds of Boeing personnel who support the ongoing development and operations of the International Space Station.
  • Sonny Carter Training Facility, Greg (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    The perimeter is a little bit off. The office building south of the NBL is still occupied by Boeing and not part of the Sonny Carter Training Facility.
  • Building 29 - Simulations, Greg (guest) wrote 17 years ago:
    This is building 29 at the Johnson Space Center, home of the Weightless Environment Test Facility (WETF). Throughout the Space Shuttle era and early development of the International Space Station, it was the one neutral buoyancy test facility at JSC, used for EVA development testing and astronaut training. The WETF was just large enough to immerse a mockup of the Space Shuttle payload bay or a single module of the space station. The huge size of the International Space Station necessitated construction of a much larger underwater test facility, the Sonny Carter Test Facility at the north end of Space Center Blvd.

    The old U.S. Geological Survey maps from the early 1900's show this as just "Military Addition". It also shows Smokeytown to the east and Cottage Grove to the north. Cottage Grove is now north of I.H. 10.
