Under the deal, the building would be renamed Salesforce Tower New York, and the companys logo would replace that of MetLife Inc. at the top of the property after the insurer leaves.
Google Inc. is ready to take the self-driving cars it designed onto public roads, another step in the companys efforts to change the way people use vehicles.
Google Inc. said its self-driving vehicles have been involved in 11 minor accidents in the six years they've been in testing, and the automobiles were never to blame for the incidents.
Google plans to test 200 vehicles, which will have top speeds of 25 mph. Self-driving cars are expected to reach 11.8M by 2035.
