Susan Wojcicki, a pioneering tech executive who helped shape Google and YouTube, has died, her husband said. She was 56.
Wojcicki played a key role in Google’s creation and served nine years as YouTube’s CEO, stepping down last year to focus on her “family, health, and personal projects I’m passionate about,” she said at the time.

It was in Menlo Park. Any space in that area is a premium so the rent fee and the size is kind of irrelevant.
I know what the prices are like in the Bay Area - I lived there for a significant fraction of my life. $1,700 in 1998 dollars is around $3,300 today. In the mid-to-late 2010s I was paying about $4k for around 1,300 square feet, so there’s still something amiss.
