They publicly announced they were building for 3000 in KW by end of 2022, https://kitchener.citynews.ca/local-news...er-2075115 . However, internal communication within Google has been that they expect to exceed the 3000 person capacity. I think they're currently planning for 5000, but there isn't a specific timeline associated with that.
The Manulife space is officially temporary while they figure out a 4th building for the Breithaupt campus. Rumour is that Spear Street's purchase of the plaza at Victoria/Duke is for Google, but I'm skeptical. Perimeter/Allied has also said they might build a Breithaupt phase 4 on the remaining parking lot.
