https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/02/14/tech/amazon-hq2-nyc/index.html I would like to see them in Detroit or a Midwest city that could use a boost. What are your thoughts?
You mean another satellite campus? Bezos can’t fool much
Detroit would be ideal. Atlanta/RTP is next likely
Atlanta most likely, though I want it to be RTP
And as a consolation prize, amazon agrees to double real estate by adding more warehouses, creating more jobs at 1/100 the pay
Decision makes sense. Can’t have two unwelcoming hqs
Hq2 is dead, it’s not going to the Midwest
Calgary would be great HQ2. Low cost of living and good feed tech schools. And close to the already big office in Vancouver.
I wonder how the socialists feel about this one
Toronto ?
Toronto would be cool. It’s easy coast and close to NY
@poorrep pfft you're OK with Toronto but not with Calgary. Toronto with its sky high housing prices, oppressive humidity, frequent snow dumping storms, and traffic that's slow as molasses. What a skewed perspective. Lol
NYC lost a great deal just done. Thank your local populist
It was all a ruse for taxes. Had your company wanted to be here they’d be here. You watch what the city does next to amazon. Taxes. Taxes. Taxes. Ding ding ding! Good riddance.
