"A thriving ecosystem of transportation and tech."
"An icon of culture and community."

The city released the video to YouTube Friday, just as it wrapped up its official visit from Amazon executives, who spent part of this week touring possible HQ2 locations and learning more about the city.
"It's day one in the second city," Shatner says as the roughly 90 second video concludes. "Let's get started."
