Add BT as a preferred source[NEW YORK] Google has been prowling Manhattan's Soho neighbourhood in search of a location for its first stand-alone retail outlet, according to a local real estate broker.
The search-engine company, which has expanded its reach into smartphones, computerised eyewear and laptops, is considering leasing at 131 Greene St, said Faith Hope Consolo, chairman of the retail group at Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
The property is around the corner from Apple's first New York store, on Prince Street. Google may be looking at other locations as well, according to Ms Consolo, who said that she showed company representatives retail space elsewhere.
