How many jobs are in LIC though? This would've been a massive boon to the LIC and the NYC job market without the added congestion that putting these jobs in Manhattan would've caused. Manhattan is already at/over capacity, but I don't think the Manhattan -> LIC rush hour subway is.

I don't think it's reasonable to think that most people working at HQ2 would have been doing a reverse commute from Manhattan into LIC. It's equally likely that they would just be crowding the already crowded trains heading through LIC to Manhattan.
