Re: Amazon campus in Seattle (biosphere content)
What’s $4B among friends? The City of Pittsburgh, Allegheny County and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania went to court to protect the secrecy of their collective offer to Amazon, which inluded a bundle of incentives like land, grant funding and infrastructure improvements. In the end, John and Mary Q. Public threatened to take them down in the next election and the politicos caved in and unveiled the offer...after the selection was made of course. Who knows if you would ever find out the truth had the region been awarded the HQ2 site. Amazon claimed that the fiscal incentives weren’t the primary driver in terms of the location selection and based on this offer and others, that has some truth to it.
