Also considering the fact that Amazon constructed much (most?) of its office space. But "Amazon funds 25% increase in Seattle's prime office space" isn't as interesting a headline.

This PDF lists figures for Seattle's Class A and B office space on the bottom of page 2: http://team.transwestern.net/Market-Research/Documents/West%...

According to this, Seattle has 50.7 million square feet of Class A office space. Amazon's 8.1 million square feet is 16%. There are 53 million square feet of Class B office space.

I'd guess prime is class A office space >> http://www.boma.org/research/pages/building-class-definition...

And, for that matter, if you counted all adjacent cities that would reasonably make up a metro area.

Prime means you get fast deliveries.

ducks.. found that one hard to resist
