So if Amazon is building HQ2 in Midtown, the NIMBYs and pandering politicans will look like total idiots. Not only are they "cursed" with tens of thousands of high-paying jobs, all the benefits Amazon promised have disappeared.

But this is very good news, nonetheless. At least in Midtown, there's no AOC. And the whiners won't even notice Amazon, given Midtown's size.

Also, kudos to the pundits and analysts who correctly called this. A number of prominent folks predicted Amazon HQ2 was still a go, but relocated.
