Google leasing an additional 100,000 sqft.
Google is growing its downtown Austin footprint, even before its first employees set foot in the company’s new space in the sleek new office tower called 500 West 2nd.
Google’s new space will consolidate employees from other locations, including North Mopac Boulevard (Loop 1) and University Park just north of downtown. In 2015, Google confirmed that it had signed a lease for more than 200,000 square feet of space in 500 West 2nd.
Google will be occupying about 300,000 square feet of space in the building, or 50 percent more than its initial lease. Google will occupy the top 10 floors. Other tenants at 500 West 2nd include business services firm Deloitte, real estate firm CBRE and the law firm of King & Spalding.
