Google barge to be a temporary technology exhibit space featuring "fish fin" sails

google_bargeYou know that mysterious barge of Google’s in California? Above is an artist’s rendering of what it might just look like. According to documents attained by the San Francisco Chronicle, the barge will eventually be a “50-foot-tall, 250-foot-long structure made of recycled shipping containers and surrounded by sails resembling fish fins.” It’s going to be a studio and a ”temporary technology exhibit space” to drive tourism along the waterfront.

The barge will reportedly hold up to 1,000 visitors a day during monthlong visits at locations around San Fran, like Fort Mason, Angel Island, Redwood City, and Rosie the Riveter Historical National Park in Richmond. Eventually it will keep traveling, visiting San Diego and other West Coast ports. We can’t wait to see what the finished product will look like; it sounds exciting.
