The discussions were more detailed than those the company has had regarding other locations in Northern Virginia and some other cities nationally. At stake: the online retail giant’s second North American headquarters and 50,000 jobs.
Spokesmen for Amazon declined to comment to the newspaper, as did Arlington County Board Chair Katie Cristol.
