Arlington County Statement on Amazon's HQ2

Published on March 03, 2023

Arlington County values the ongoing partnership with Amazon throughout the creation of its second headquarters – HQ2 has always been a multi-year project, and it continues to be a long-term commitment to Arlington and Virginia. We’re confident Amazon remains committed to the second phase of the project – PenPlace – and its benefits to the community, including affordable housing and the exciting partnership with Arlington Public Schools for the Community High School. We remain committed to working with Amazon in the years ahead, and look forward to the opening of phase one – Met Park – later this year.

Arlington County Board Chair Christian Dorsey will hold a virtual press briefing on Friday, March 3, 2023, at 2 p.m. 

To RSVP for the briefing, contact Ryan Hudson in the Communications & Public Engagement Office at rhudson@arlingtonva.us. A link to a Microsoft Teams meeting will follow.
