"Google has revealed that it is planning to construct a 1.1 million\u00A0square foot\u00A0campus, dubbed &amp;quot;Bay View,&amp;quot;\u00A0to be located in\u00A0Mountain View, but &amp;quot;closer to\u00A0San Francisco Bay.&amp;quot; Update: Statement from Google at foot of post.\r\n\r\nTo make this a reality, Google has teamed up with\u00A0NBBJ, a Seattle-based architecture firm which Vanity Fair calls &amp;quot;a somewhat more conventional choice&amp;quot; than the architect\u00A0Google originally intended to work with back in 2011.\r\n\r\nAccording to the manager of Google's real estate,\u00A0David Radcliffe, Google has a history of converting workspaces to its own needs, but has never constructed a building from scratch \u2014 something both Apple and Facebook have invested heavily in lately\r\n\r\nAs shown below, the upcoming campus will consist of\u00A0nine different structures, all looking like &amp;quot;bent rectangles.&amp;quot;\u00A0Radcliffe tells VF that\u00A0&amp;quot;no employee in the 1.1-million-square-foot complex will be more than a two-and-a-half-minute walk from any other.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nUpdate: Google has provided us with the following statement:\r\nWe are beginning construction on our new Bayview Campus, which is a key to our growth and another sign of our commitment to the area. As this project progresses, we\u2019ll continue to work closely with NASA, the community and the City of Mountain View.\r\nThe complete rendering, via NBBJ:\r\n\r\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
