Brief
San Jose is not the only place where Google is spurring additional construction. In December, the company unveiled its plans for a mixed-use “Complete Neighborhood” on property it owns in Mountain View, California, home to its existing headquarters. The company is asking the city to transfer its approval for 1.1 million square feet of office space on another parcel to that one. The end result would see the transformation of extraneous office space into as many as 6,600 new homes, 20% of which would be affordable for low-, moderate- and middle-income individuals and families. The company would also carve out more than 35 acres of accessible public space and build out space for retail, small business, community services and a new elementary school.
Also in December, Google announced a $1 billion investment into Google Hudson Square, its planned Manhattan campus, that will increase its New York City portfolio by 1.7 million square feet. The company will make improvements to three leased properties near the Hudson River. Two buildings will be ready for occupancy in 2020 and the other will be in 2022.
That announcement came on the heels of Google’s $2.4 billion purchase of Chelsea Market, a destination food and shopping venue that also has offices and a television production facility on the property.
