I will "officially" hope AMZN chooses ATL (as leverage for a bigger raise) but ATL has problems.

1) traffic -- not sure it's possible to get to ATL airport in 45 min during rush hour, without using MARTA rail.

2) transit -- how much "developable" land has a mass transit stop on-site? AMZN would either have to buy a developed site or have a MARTA rail spur built.

3) ATL airport -- a certain airline has way too much power there.

But anyway, I found the perfect spot for AMZN if they can swing it - it meets their core requirements (it's even built over a MARTA rail stop) -- http://www.midtownatl.com/view/atandt-building




"ATL airport -- a certain airline has way too much power there."

And that airline is increasingly big in Seattle as well.
