Amazon is taking 360,000 square feet of space in Manhattan’s new Hudson Yards complex to house its advertising team, which handles marketing, product, design and engineering. The group will also share space with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Amazon Fashion staff, for a total of over 2,000 jobs over the next three years. The move, which follows announced plans to open its first New York State distribution center (in Staten Island), is separate and apart from Amazon’s search for a secondary headquarters.
