SAN JOSE — Google and San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan both said Friday the search giant remains fully committed to its ambitious new neighborhood in downtown San Jose although the project’s timeline is still being reassessed.
“There is actually no news, which is good news,” Mayor Matt Mahan said Friday afternoon during a meeting with this news organization and other media outlets to discuss the current status of the project, which is known as Downtown West. The tech titan’s interest in the Downtown West neighborhood hasn’t wavered and is as solid as ever, the Google spokesperson said.
During a conference call to discuss fourth-quarter financial results for Alphabet and its principal operating unit Google, Chief Financial Officer Ruth Porat said the company intends to leave some currently leased spaces. It was not immediately clear exactly which leases the company is seeking to end. But as part of the real estate downsizing, Google will primarily exit office spaces that it had leased but has yet to occupy, a company spokesperson said.
