Google will open its first retail store in the D.C. region at 3235 M Street NW later this year.
The tech giant has signed a 10-year lease with EastBanc for a 7,000-square-foot space, marking its sixth retail store nationwide. JLL represented Google, while EastBanc was self-represented in the transaction.
“EastBanc is excited to welcome Google to Georgetown, one of its select retail locations nationwide,” said Philippe Lanier, Principal at EastBanc. “The arrival of Google not only solidifies the neighborhood’s reputation as a premier hub for innovative shopping experiences and cutting-edge brands but provides many shoppers the first opportunity to touch and feel these incredible products while surrounded by Google experts.”
The D.C.-area store also will offer on-site device repair, trade-ins, in-store expert support with device installation and troubleshooting, and programs and educational workshops. The addition of Google adds to other technology companies like Tesla and lifestyle brands such as Skims and Glossier.
