How does passing their building prove that they still make VAXen
(as opposed to Alpha-based hardware)?

No, it has already been available for Alpha for eight years. It's not
planned for the future, except in the sense that they are continuing to
support it.

This still doesn't provide any confirmation that they still make VAXen.

However, a little more thorough searching reveals that as of January 25,
they still offered:

        VAXstation 4000 Model 96
        MicroVAX 3100 Model 88
        MicroVAX 3100 Model 98
        VAX 4000 Model 108
        VAX 7000 Model 810 (up to six CPUs)
