That’s All Great, But What About the Money?

As you all have probably noticed, I really liked this campus. Bay View gives me a bit of hope that big corporations like Google can make changes in how their offices operate.

Yet, while this campus is great, it’s only one campus. Is this replicable for a smaller company? It’s hard to know, as the company didn’t disclose how much Bay View cost to build, CNBC reports. Bay View is one of 20 key projects in the U.S. that Google will invest about $9.5 billion in this year, so there’s no doubt it was expensive.
