CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Charlotte didn't make the shortlist for Amazon's second HQ but now the city is prime for a different investment.

• The city council approved plans for a new Amazon distribution center Monday night
• It would bring 1,500 new jobs with salaries ranging from $25,000 to $45,000
• The project is going through CF Hippolyta Charlotte (Hippolyta means "Queen of the Amazons" in Greek mythology)

The city council approved plans for a new Amazon distribution center Monday night, a $200 million capital investment.

The project would be located on an unused stretch of land surrounded by I-485, I-85, and Tuckaseegee Road, near Charlotte Douglas International Airport.

City council will sell the land for $7.5 million and they're providing $13.4 million in incentives.

It would bring 1,500 new jobs with salaries ranging from $25,000 to $45,000.

Republican Ed Driggs isn't saying much about who's involved but he believes this would be a good move for the city.
