For perspective: * Downtown San Jose Google "Transit Village" - 25,000 people could work there, including 15,000 to 20,000 of Google's employees. * Oct 2018, Google bought two big curving office buildings on North First Street and can accommodate 1,900 to 2,500 Google employees. * New North San Jose site - up to 10,000 Google employees. * Mountain View - 165,000 square feet of old buildings that they will tear down.
Awesome. We can get a 2-fer by shipping 100,000 illegals to the new campus.
there are at least 2 mysteries in all this...
1. Google has purchased (and is continuing to purchase) IMMENSE (and very expensive) industrial and commercial properties...on a huge scale....
it is unknown just what ANY company, even a growing firm, could possibly do with nearly as much Real estate as this!
and
2. IF Google plans to house more computer programming type workers anywhere, putting them in the most expensive part of USA will cost the company a lot of extra money ... when they could have much better lives on lower wages... in hundreds of other, mostly-nicer places to live
NOTE that many tech workers in SillyCon Valley are desperately trying to find jobs ELSEWHERE, and many other large firms located there are adding new facilities in other states for these folks... and to be able to attract more workers when they expand their businesses
so, there’s a double-mystery to all this Google buying up of the California Bay Area... again, we are talking about huge acquisitions, some public some far less visible...in the multi-billions of dollars
It’s a good time to own rental property in Downtown San Jose.
Perfect destination to dump illegals.
Send a truck around to give them an EBT card on the fifteenth and thirtieth if their biometric ID matches.
Hopefully the Tesla hover crafts will be available when the buildings open, just to assure people can get to work in under 2 hours.
