Because seeing is believing, we created Mission Street—an immersive neighborhood inside the Ronald Reagan Building—to show public sector employees how Google AI is already transforming their world. By re-creating their everyday surroundings in unexpected ways, we allowed them to experience firsthand how AI is helping cities, states, and organizations become more efficient and effective.

The space was filled with interactive elements that told powerful stories of Google AI in action: payphones that played real success stories when picked up, camera lenses that instantly translated foreign menus, and more—each illustrating the real-world impact of AI.

For the hard-working, often under-resourced public sector employees who power our communities, Mission Street was more than an experience. It was proof of what’s possible.
