What's The [Data] Point? Episode 66 -- 25,000, the Amazon Deal That Vanished and What It Means, with Vishaan Chakrabarti [You can download What's The [Data] Point? wherever you get your podcasts, including on iTunes]

Amazon was coming to Queens with 25,000 jobs and now it's not -- the mega-deal fell apart and the company backed out amid significant pushback from some local elected officials, community activists, and labor unions. Vishaan Chakrabarti, an architect and urban planner who helped lead the Bloomberg administration's Manhattan planning efforts after 9/11, was a proponent of the Amazon deal and believes New York will rue the day the deal fell apart. He joined the podcast to discuss it all, and what comes next.
