"Most economists" and "some experts" can both be true.

Thanks for proving my point? It's not exactly the super-clear OMG NYC TOOK A MASSIVE BLOW picture that you both want to paint here. 

The studies done assumed nothing was done with the area... which just wouldn't happen. It also generously assumed that all 40,000 jobs were taken in the next 15 years, which Amazon only promised 25,0000 and stated that potentially another 15,0000. 

This is no different than all the rosy, perfect-case scenario, studies done to justify stadium spending for sports teams. It's not needed, businesses will come either way, this isn't the middle of nowhere. Maybe it won't be as much as Amazon would have brought, but it won't be that far off, worst case.
