SEATTLE — Google is expanding again right in the heart of Amazon country.
The Silicon Valley tech giant is going to take over a new 12-story, 322,000-square-foot office tower planned at the prominent corner of Mercer Street and Westlake Avenue in South Lake Union, across the street from a large Google office development being built now.
Paul Allen’s Vulcan Real Estate, which built the majority of South Lake Union’s tech center is handling the latest Google development as well, and announced the plans Tuesday.
