It already has entire floors of co-location space. That's what people are referring to.
Google might have some interest in co-locating some gear there, but they would never turn it into a DC proper (it's nowhere near large enough).
Other companies have enough leverage in non-internet related fields to cause a big shitstorm if it was to happen. If this is a long term approach I could see them not renew or assign new leases when current tenants vacate, but you will not see press releases. I also have no association with this story, so I can only speculate as well.
