THERE WILL BE A LOT OF COMPETITION FOR AMAZON’S SECOND HEADQUARTERS. THE COMPANY SAID MONDAY IT HAD RECEIVED 238 PROPOSALS FROM CITIES AND REGIONS IN NORTH AMERICA. ALBUQUERQUE IS AMONG THOSE LOOKING TO BE PICKED.
LAST THURSDAY WAS THE DEADLINE TO SUBMIT A BID. AMAZON PLANS TO SPEND 5-BILLION DOLLARS ON ITS SECOND HEADQUARTERS…WHICH COULD MEAN 50-THOUSAND HIGH-PAYING JOBS.
ALBUQUERQUE, BY THE WAY, IS THE HOME TOWN OF AMAZON C-E-O JEFF BEZOS.
