Agreed ^ with Matt Hahn. Direct flights to Seattle could be negotiated with an airline because the demand would be present with HQ2.People re locate for jobs all the time so the argument that there aren't enough workers here doesn't even make sense. What about re purposing a spanking newly -built dead mall Pittsburgh Mills ? There is 200 acres right there. CMU and University of Pittsburgh and other quality schools here churn out grads that wouldn't have to leave the area to find work. Low cost of living along with Pittsburgh's vibrancy and recreation always help make a region more enticing for young people to move here. I don't want to hear about bad weather either. Seattle is just as rainy as Pittsburgh and Chicago, Minneapolis, Detroit are cold, Denver gets bad blizzard conditions and the Texas , Fla, etc have hurricanes.
