Originally intended to just be temporary until Breithaupt Block phase 3 is built, my understanding is they're now considering keeping both King Centre and the full Breithaupt Block.
Woah, what, since when? The entire building? Will it become the "Google" building instead of "The Manulife one"?
Yes, entire building. It's not officially announced yet, but I've heard it from several different people in the know, so it's not a well kept secret.
Google has already overflowed their current Breithaupt space, and has a temporary office around Philip and Columbia. I assume they want to get everyone back downtown. If the target is now 3000 jobs then the Manulife building is 1000 of those jobs.
