- Google plans to build the "greenest building ever" in Mountain View @ 310,000 sq. ft
- Google's VP of Real Estate, Dave Radcliffe, says project is currently on hold because it does not currently make financial sense.
- But, Yvonne Farrell, a LEED-certified architect on Mountain Views' Environmental Sustainability Task Force, says it should cost Google no more than any other of its Class A buildings, and that in the long run (10 to 20 years), it should cost less.
- Editor's note: while this may be true, the value of money today could be more expensive than the time value of money saved further down the road. I'd like to see some hard numbers, although I don't I'll get my hands on their pro forma! :)
