SAN JOSE — Google has taken ownership of some small downtown San Jose parcels that date back to the era of the Wild West in deals that help the search giant push ahead with its game-changing new transit village.
Plenty is on the line. Google intends to employ up to 25,000 tech workers in its new neighborhood, which is known as Downtown West. Google and the city are working together to attempt to “quiet” the title to four properties to ensure that the parcel remnants are all transferred by court order and deeds to the tech company and the municipality — and to make it crystal clear that the owners of the sites are either the search giant or the city.
Even so, their vast holdings in the South Bay of the 19th century have survived into modern-day downtown San Jose as parcel remnants. a bedroom-sized chunk of Otterson Street in the vicinity of where Schwall family members once lived, 187 square feet.
