Amazon is coming to East New York. They are taking 211,000 square feet for a delivery station set to open during the second half of 2021, Crain’s New York Business reported.

The station will be located at 12555 Flatlands Ave., near Erskine St., to be known as the Brooklyn Logistics Center and owned by Wildflower Ltd. This is the second lease signing in East New York for Amazon. The first location is at 2300 Linden Blvd. will be a 90,000-square-foot last-mile distribution center.
“We are excited to continue to invest in New York State with a new delivery station that will provide efficient delivery for customers and create job opportunities for the talented workforce,” an Amazon spokesperson said in a statement.
Wildflower Ltd. purchased 12555 Flatlands Ave. in 2018 for $25.3 million, according to property records and they are now leasing the property to Amazon.
Amazon claimed the facility will create hundreds of full and part-time jobs that will pay at least $15 an hour.

With no tax incentives?

I remember people trying to paint AOC as the devil for "blocking jobs" and "keeping Amazon from NY" because she opposed paying them to come.

AOC is an idiot ! She's from NYC but doesn't understand that NYC is built on finance. There is a huge difference between a second headquarters and a distribution center. Tax incentives are how you attract business. Her dumb ass said why don't we tax the 3 billion dollars in tax incentives an us it for something else. Her dumbass didn't know that 3 billion in tax incentives doesn't mean we are giving them 3 billion actual dollars. Amazon promised 25,000 jobs, even if it was 15,000 the ancillary jobs that would have been created around that would have helped the city even more not to mention an expansion of the MTA system as they built-up long Island city for more housing. and the truth of the matter is according to all the polls whether you believe them or not most black people and most Latinos wanted/needed those jumps from Amazon.
