100s of thousands of jobs that will require residential and

commercial space as high paid workers need places to live,

retail spaces to eat out at, hang out at, work at, work out at, etc.

If you had invested in downtown Seattle around Amazon HQ1

BEFORE they hired 50,000 high paying tech workers,

you would probably retired by now...
