I agree we are over supplied with office space.

I do doubt there are many available locations for 25,000 workers in Arlington. This is an indicator that Amazon is unsure about the amount of office space it will need near the capitol, not that they think they can get a better deal with a pre-existing building. Maybe it doubts that it will need as many workers as previously thought. Maybe it questions if they need as much space for the same number of workers. Maybe it is second guessing the value of condensing workers in large hubs.

My guess is that they recently lowered their internal projections for the size of future federal government contracts. Pubic sentiment has lowered since '18, and politicians might be more sensitive to awarding them contracts.
