Amazon is in "late-stage talks" with Dallas, New York City and odds-on favorite Northern Virginia for its prized $5 billion second headquarters, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The Journal's report, posted online Sunday afternoon and citing "people familiar with the matter," followed a similarly sourced story in the Washington Post on Saturday that indicated Crystal City, Va., will be the chosen location. Located right across from Washington, D.C. along the Potomac River, Crystal City is often cited as the frontrunner for the project that'll create as many as 50,000 jobs over the next decade.
Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings declined Sunday through a spokesman to discuss the Journal's report. Darren Grubb, spokesman for the Dallas Regional Chamber, which coordinated the region's bid, also declined comment.
