It looks like our most popular term by far is Google Building. Google is building many things, from new offices to new software, from computing clusters to dark fiber networks. There's also a more literal way to look at it: the famous Google building, the Googleplex.

According to Wikipedia, the Googleplex "is the Google company headquarters, located in Mountain View, Santa Clara County, California, near San Francisco. The word Googleplex is a play on the word googolplex, and a portmanteau of Google and complex—googolplex being the name given to 10googol, or one followed by a googol zeros, and the headquarters comprising a complex of buildings. The building is unlike many modern company headquarters; contained within the sprawling complex are shade lamps, giant rubber balls, and other unusual niceties reminiscent of the dot-com boom. The complex is located in Mountain View, California, close to the Shoreline Park wetlands."
