Google Coming To Manhattan

Brett Tabke posted a thread at WebmasterWorld linking to a Village Voice article named Google: The New Port Authority. In short, Google won't comment now, but it appears Google is looking to occupy 111 Eighth Avenue (link to Google Maps & Birds Eye view at Live Local, a building built in 1932 to house the Port Authority - it is huge.

Eustace left out the part about the 300,000 square feet of space that Google plans to occupy in the heart of the city. It's a poorly kept secret that the company will soon open a huge new office and networking facility at 111 Eighth Avenue. Google's new base in the city will dump a sizable influx of Google employees into the social and professional environment of Chelsea and the West Village.

Honestly, I have walked and driven by that building a bunch of times, I didn't even notice it.

But folks at WebmasterWorld are impressed with the building and the rumors that Google will move their NY offices their, in order to expand.

I worked for WebMD and we occupied the 7th floor and Nike is on the 6th Floor. The building is massive - I used to ride my motorized scooter through the halls.
