Foxes are unexpected visitors at Google's new U.K. headquarters

Foxes have been digging burrows and leaving their droppings at the site of Google's new headquarters in London's King's Cross neighborhood.

LONDON — Google's much-hyped new U.K. headquarters in London's King's Cross neighborhood hasn't opened yet, but it's already drawn some unexpected attention from locals.

Local foxes, that is.

The building, which is under construction, has been nicknamed the "landscraper" because it spans 1,082 feet wide and 11 floors tall.

Created by British designer Thomas Heatherwick, it will reportedly be completed later this year and cost the tech giant upwards of £1 billion ($1.3 billion). Construction began in 2017. It is anticipated to eventually house up to 7,000 Google employees.

For now, however, some of the more frequent visitors might be the foxes that have been digging burrows in the manicured grounds and leaving their droppings behind on the building's nearly 1,000-foot-long rooftop garden.
