Apple Inc. has snapped up a former chip fab in North San Jose, the latest real estate play for the Cupertino-based tech juggernaut after a breathtaking year for the company's expansion in Silicon Valley.
Apple last week paid $18.2 million for the 70,000 square foot building at 3725 N. First St., public records show. The purchase is notable for the real estate's former use: It was a manufacturing facility for semiconductor company Maxim Integrated Products, which was also the seller. Maxim had said it was closing the plant in July and would be putting it on the market.
