Amazon to move it’s second headquarters to Queens.[update 2/14 : Amazon cancels its plans.

[Nintendough]

No one want to live in Newark. That city on walking dead status. All yall got is Prudential and they wont even host their annual meetings there bc it's so dusty.

You a dumb nikka. I live near philly I'm South side so why would Brick city joke bother me?


You ever walk through Hoboken stupid? Used to be the hood now it costs a million for any row facing the skyline.

 

[Nintendough]

philly looking like a real good spot to invest in after this with their really cheap prices and run down properties. dead smack in the middle of these two fine locations.

I'm bout to look at some property in West Philly. Not even worth fixing anything up in the badlands

New York rents are going to get a lot worse. Going to run a few thousand easily in Astoria/LIC. Traffic will get worse too. It is already hard to drive through LIC because of how packed it has become. They should have put it elsewhere.

Yeah, Jamaica is going to get hit as well. But these new Jobs.

New jobs for who

RIP NYC

Amazon has been on a Hispanic hiring blitz for months...they even got Spanish signs and translators now lol

This is Amazon HQ2 not some distribution center

 

[Human Torch]

DMV renters lost though. No one is going to be able to afford to buy anything. It's expensive enough already.

Waldorf will be the new chocolate city

 

[King Sun]

Queensbridge going to turn into luxury high rises

 

[newworldafro]

Jackson Heights and Woodside are not "native New Yorker" neighborhoods, they've been filled with immigrants for years. The neighborhoods that people associate with "native whites" like Maspeth, Ridgewood, and Glendale now have large Latino immigrant populations (in additions to many Polish immigrants)

Oh really? I definitely thought those were still overwhelmingly

Gentrification brought to you by free Prime two day shipping , none of these jobs are for the neighborhood residents either.

Real estate developers in the cut like

Bronx developers really about to eat if this comes to pass. All speculation until official notice.

No one wants to live in the Bronx, guy

 

[Cave Savage]

No one wants to live in the Bronx, guy

Prices are already getting pretty high there even without gentrification

I'm sad that they didn't choose a better location, but it's great that it's not down here. The folks who bought land for the anticipation of the headquarters.

 

[™BlackPearl The Empress™]

We lost. things are expensive enough as it is...cost of living out here has almost doubled. traffic sux...its about to be unmanageable. it's already bad,takes 1.5 hrs for me to get to the 14th st bridge and another 10 mins navigating downtown or if I'm feeling lucky..9th street tunnel is not backed up. Do you know Where they are putting it??? Crystal City? Or near the Pentagon ? I Might as well move back to NY for all this.
at least ill be in more familiar surroundings near queens...I think

I am guessing Crystal City.There is a ton of unused office space plus they have that underground mall.

 

[hashmander]

these new amazon employees are going to like roosevelt island too.

 

[JAY?]

Most of the large homes in East Elmhurst are owned by blacks and I think the AAs who live there are for the most part senior citizens. I could be wrong.

You're not totally wrong. Most of the younger AAs have families who has been here generations. The newer people who are moving in are mostly hispanic

 

[JamilALAmin]
