On its website, Amazon officially announced the locations of its new headquarters. As previous rumors suggested, Amazon is splitting its new operations between locations in Arlington, just outside of Washington DC, and in Long Island City, at the western tip of Queens, New York City. Amazon claims that both headquarters will host about 25,000 high paying jobs, and Amazon will start hiring in 2019 if you're interested. Amazon is also building a new "Operations Center of Excellence in Nashville, Tennessee. Apparently, Amazon's new headquarters has already sparked a real estate boom in Long Island City, and Arlington and Tennessee will undoubtedly benefit from the new developments too.
As part of Amazon's new headquarters, New York and Long Island City will benefit from more than 25,000 full-time high-paying jobs; approximately $2.5 billion in Amazon investment; 4 million square feet of energy-efficient office space with an opportunity to expand to 8 million square feet; and an estimated incremental tax revenue of more than $10 billion over the next 20 years as a result of Amazon's investment and job creation.
