Google’s huge Seattle campus being built on Amazon’s backyard of South Lake Union is about to get a lot bigger.

Paul Allen’s Vulcan Real Estate said today it is developing a third block for Google in addition to the more than 607,000 square feet currently under construction. Work will begin on this block, which will feature a 12-story office building for Google with 23,000 square feet of retail space, in the fourth quarter of 2019, and it will be ready for Google in 2021.

The site is directly across an alley from one of Amazon’s original office buildings in the neighborhood. Vulcan would not say how many square feet the new building will be, but previous permit filings with the city of Seattle showed plans for a 12-story, 322,000-square-foot structure there. A new building of that size would bring the future Google campus size to nearly 930,000 square feet.
