Not to be outdone by Amazon and Apple, Google recently announced its very own campus expansion project: Google Hudson Square. The $1 billion project will establish a new campus and expand the company’s New York City presence.
The campus will span over 1.7 million sf across three main buildings at 315 and 345 Hudson Street (which the company has already signed lease agreements for) and 550 Washington Street (which Goggle has signed a letter of intent for).
Google plans to move into the two Hudson street buildings by 2020 and the 550 Washington Street building in 2022 once it is complete. The new campus will be the primary location for Google’s New York-based Global Business Organization.
