The Infamous Google Barge Will Feature Sails
In a set of documents provided to the San Francisco Chronicle by way of a Freedom of Information request, the construction company working on the barge said that it would feature sails and that the structure is designed "to stand out."
Google's been working on a new mystery project in San Francisco Bay, and it's gotten more than a few people talking. In a set of documents provided to the San Francisco Chronicle by way of a Freedom of Information request, the construction company working on the barge said that it would feature sails and that the structure is designed "to stand out."
"We envisioned this space with community in mind… a surprising environment that is accessible to all and inspires conversation about how everything is connected – shorebirds, me, you, the sea, the fog and much more."
In official documents the barge is simply referred to as the "San Francisco Studio" and is expected to be temporary, only operating from November of this year to November of 2014.

house70 Why infamous?Reply
Oh, wait, that question has already been asked. Is this more infamous than, say, Apple's "spaceship"? Still being under investigation. LOL.
