It seems that, from Google Cloud Console there is no way to delete a project.

Note: As of 2013-09-19 this is no longer an issue because Google had fixed it.

As 2017 approaches, Raptor's answer pretty much nailed it, but here is a screenshot and the basic steps to delete a project from the google cloud platform.

  1. Go to console.cloud.google.com
  2. Select your project (from drop-down on top nav-bar)
  3. Select IAM & Admin (from hamburger menu on top-left nav-bar)
  4. Click Settings in the left-side-bar nav.
  5. Click SHUT DOWN (image shows DELETE PROJECT)
  6. Enter text per instructions to confirm project shutdown.
