Alphabet Inc.'s Google LLC unit plans to increase its workforce in New York City to more than 14,000 employees over the next 10 years, CFO Ruth Porat said at the WSJ Tech D.Live conference.
Google currently has 7,000 employees in New York, according to a Nov. 13 report by The Wall Street Journal.
Google is reportedly close to striking a deal to buy or lease a planned 1.3 million-square-foot office building at Oxford Properties Group's $2 billion St. John's Terminal development project in Manhattan, N.Y.
