But why did you ask this question?

Photographs inside data centers are not allowed for security reasons (except properly vetted stock images). We don't have any such images.

The "datacenter" is just something like two or three servers and a UPS in a small closet (mrpijey posted pictures in the past). I don't know what you're expecting but I guess you'd be seriously disappointed :D
I upload stuff to archive.org from time to time. See here for everything that doesn't fit BA

The web server is in a datacenter in Germany. The FTP is hosted by mrpijey.

As BetaArchive is an internet community, it doesn't have an office (nor does it needs one).
If you want to see how the data center looks, take a look viewtopic.php?t=38352 and viewtopic.php?t=36653.

That's not where BetaArchive is hosted, that's just the FTP archive.

I think if we had that building actually, it would be sold immediately for a dedicated VPS with 10^4 TB of storage that could last us for years. Plus have a web designer.

The west wing is mine, the east wing is Andy's, and in the middle we got the Scrooge McDuck-influenced money bin where we during the week relax, chat about the future of BetaArchive and make up plans for world domination. I.e same thing any other sysadmin would do. We also eat waffles and play a lot of video games. A normal business day at the BetaArchive mansion.

Server room is in the secret basement, well protected from rats, water, nuclear fallout and global warming. Got to protect them bytes...

AlphaBeta, thanks for the photo. We have tried to get a professional photographer for years to take some good photos of our mansion but every one we hired was utterly traumatized by the awesomeness of our mansion so they couldn't finish their task before being rushed to the hospital for treatment. I am glad you made it safe and sound.

But this photo is the northern facade of the White House, while the admins live in UK
For you, chasemorgan2010, if you really live in USA, you should already know this photo. So, you could answer your question

That’s like the White House! The White House is much larger.

I’m pretty sure chasemorgan2010 is too young to be on this site.
But anyway, the above picture is not the headquarters of BetaArchive.
Don’t know why you keep asking since the only answer you’ll get is “there is no headquarters”.
