The Mountain View, Calif., subsidiary of Alphabet said Tuesday that it will also retrofit an existing data center in the Atlanta suburb of Lithia Springs. Google said that it will occupy five floors of a 31-story building under construction in Atlanta’s Midtown neighborhood, saying it would later take over an additional 14 floors.

The company hasn’t said how many people it will hire in Atlanta, but now has 185 positions posted. It’s part of a $7 billion expansion the company announced earlier this month, including hiring 10,000 new full-time workers in the United States.
