Wasn't NeXT in the same building (or was it next to?) on Deer Creek that was later used by Tesla?
Also nearby was Syntax's corporate headquarters from 1959 until its demise. While more yam that silicon, I think it's hard to overstate the way that Syntax fundamentally changed women's lives.

And the chemical was derived from a naturally occurring one found in yams. Thanks for the pointer -- I learned something. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntex https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntex
