If NY doesn’t get Amazon (which it won’t since it didn’t offer any money), I hope that Philly gets it and builds a 1,400’ HQ!

I’d rather have NYC take it, for 2 World Trade to rise

I agree, but Amazon wants $
Philly has a pretty compelling pitch:

It includes up to $3 billion in tax breaks, which is of course stupid for Philly and PA, but great for Amazon.
It may be hard to beat Newark’s $7 billion in tax breaks, though. It’s infuriating that Christie can offer that much but still cancelled the ARC tunnel.

I think that if NJ’s bid were for the JC waterfront, it might win. I doubt that A will want to be in Newark.

Amazon’s subsidiary Audible is headquartered in Newark though, along with a few warehouses
Not to mention this building is already fully leased
Can’t wait until this one is done. Really seems like it’s been dragging out.

Philly’s looking good!
Philly, Boston, and NY are like close cousins.
