Google employees still will enjoy free food in the company's new Manhattan offices
Just like employees in Mountain View, employees in the New York office also have free
food available to them any time of day or night. There are several smaller kitchens throughout
the main floor stocked with drinks, snacks and cereal. There is also a "micro-cafe" offering
breakfast, lunch and dinner options. The company is also building a bigger cafeteria staffed
with a full-time chef that will occupy an entire floor. It will open in November. The move to
the new office space, which also happens to sit atop one of the largest fiber-optic crossroads
for Internet and telephone communications in Manhattan, has spurred much speculation that Google
is planning to build a massive data center.

same neighborhood have been selling in the $1.1 million to $1.3 million range. That's a small
fraction of the $319 million that Google paid earlier this year for its current
1-million-square-foot headquarters located six miles to the south. Although the Google
garage isn't considered a historic site quite yet, it already has turned into a tourist
attraction.
