In December 2018, San Jose city officials began paving the way for Google to develop a significant piece of real estate in the downtown area. The city’s council approved a more than $100 million land sale to the tech giant that is slated to bring upwards of 20,000 jobs to the area. As a result, there has been a domino effect of other businesses looking to develop property near the future Google facility, driving real estate sales of $1.4 billion over the last year, which is triple the amount of the year prior.
Night life in the San Jose area has been largely non-existent, but local officials believe the new influx of Google jobs--which will bring new residents--coupled with the other new developments will change that. In her comments, Jay Paul Co. Director of Acquisitions and Capital Markets Kristin Molano says the sale “has the potential to be a great deal.”
