And 111 Eighth Avenue, Google’s NYC headquarters, is 2.9 MM square feet (I think Google only occupies about a third of the building so far).


I work there. They've expanded a lot. If my reckoning is right Google occupies 8/15 floors completely, and occupy fractions of a couple more floors.


As of last year (when I worked there), 8 was a pass-through floor mostly occupied by ISPs. 15/9/10 should be done by now, though.


Is the rest of it empty or do they rent it?


Their tenants include Nike, Deutsch Inc, Bank of New York and Barnes & Noble. They also donated space for Cornell NYC Tech to hold classes there.

Oh man. One of my favorite memories was the look on the Internap security guy's face when we parked a 19ft box truck at their loading dock on the 10th floor of the Port Authority building. "the truck is WHERE?"
