Amazon Won't Build Second Headquarters in New York City

Amazon says it's dropping New York City as its second headquarter location.

Amazon said today it is pulling out of the three-billion-dollar deal to bring HQ2 to Queens, but the company will move forward with plans for Virginia, Nashville and will hire at other tech hubs. The announcement comes after widespread pushback from Democratic lawmakers, residents, organizers and activists who were angry over the reported tax breaks the state was giving Amazon.
