Just weeks after unveiling its new offices and a nonprofit center, the tech giant is preparing to move more workers into Sail Tower off West Second Street.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The company confirmed that it is renovating about 69,000 square feet of additional floor space for employees, who began moving into the new office spaces in 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Google\u2019s thousands of Austin employees, the company\u2019s largest Texas workforce, occupy two downtown towers across the street from each other: Sail Tower and 500 W. Second St., which displays the company\u2019s iconic \u201cG\u201d logo. \u00a0<\/p>\n
The company previously said it was reviewing its office spaces and hybrid policy following the pandemic before ultimately moving into the building as the tower\u2019s first tenant. The 804,000-square-foot building changed hands late 2024 when Atlanta-based Cousins Properties acquired it for $521.8 million<\/a>, the largest office property sale in Austin that year. At the time, brokers said the deal showed faith in Austin\u2019s long-term office market.<\/p>\n Earlier this month, Google officially opened its new Sail Tower offices and a nonprofit community hub for local organizations to reserve and receive Google-sponsored training. \u00a0<\/p>\n
