2. Amazon’s $2.5 billion second headquarters will have an outdoor, woodsy theme with three 22-story office buildings and smaller retail buildings in the development flanked by woodlands and an outdoor amphitheater. 

3. Amazon said it plans to hire 1,900 new employees at HQ2 for various technical and nontechnical jobs.
