Amazon may be primed to add space near its NYC headquarters as more workers return to office

Amazon's recent push for employees to return full-time to the office has prompted discussions about leasing all of HSBC's 350,000 square feet as part of its expansion plans.

As part of its strategy to centralize operations, Amazon is in negotiations for space at 452 Fifth Ave., which puts it close to its existing Manhattan headquarters.

Despite the potential deal's scale, sources warn that a signed lease is still uncertain, reflecting Amazon's history of exiting agreements it previously committed to.

Amazon's ambitious real estate goals in New York City follow a mixed history, marked by both major acquisitions and significant walkaways from leases that were anticipated to be secured.
