Anyhow, looks like this one will be a go

Yes, 100K sq ft or a little more is 1000 jobs. This is from Crains article:

The huge additional space—Salesforce now has about a third of that amount at 111 W. Illinois St.—will allow for an equally large expansion of the company's work force here, which now is a bit over 1,000. Company officials have been extremely reluctant to say anything in advance of tomorrow's announcement, which is to come at a morning news conference across from Wolf Point. But sources said the company, at a minimum, will add 1,000 jobs over several years and potentially 5,000 more, depending on its growth.
