Link, because it makes almost zero sense to put it in SD.



I've updated my original post. A friend of mine who lives in San Diego posted this story.

I simply decided to share it. With all of you.

If an Amazon distribution center in your state is in your top 100 reasons why you pick where to live...that’s sad.

No way they would have an announcement. Sounds like BS to me. Plus, I suspect that there will be some massive reveal for this thing. Golden PR opportunity will not be wasted.

It isn't mentioned on Bloomberg, Wapo, or the WSJ yet.

It's listed on the Chicago Times News.

Now whether or not this is a credible source remains to be seen.
