  • 10 months ago
A secret project within Tesla, referred to as "Project 42," involving plans for a glass-walled building near the company's headquarters in Austin, Texas, is drawing scrutiny from Tesla lawyers and board members. An internal investigation was conducted to determine if company resources were misused and if Musk had a role in the project. Described as a house for Elon Musk, it involves various designs, including a twisted hexagonal structure, an expansive glass box similar to Apple's Fifth Avenue store, and renderings featuring a waterfall and a futuristic pickup truck resembling the Cybertruck. Musk's associates were reportedly searching for properties in the Austin area, and limited liability companies tied to Musk's businesses had purchased land in the region. Tesla's board has specific guidelines for reviewing and approving transactions involving related persons with a material interest.
