Alphabet Inc’s Google is investing over $1 billion to establish a new campus in New York
Alphabet Inc’s Google is investing over $1 billion to establish a new campus in New York, becoming the second major technology company after Amazon to pick America’s financial capital to expand and create thousands of jobs.
The 1.7 million square-foot campus, called Google Hudson Square, will include leased properties at Hudson Street and Washington Street, the company said in a blog post on Monday. Google hopes to start moving into the building by 2022.
Google’s plans to invest outside its home base mirror those of other US tech bigwigs such as Apple Inc, which recently said it would spend $1 billion to build a new campus in Austin, Texas.
