They ended up building it, or one like it outside Troy, in Schodack, just off 90. https://www.bizjournals.com/albany/news/2023/01/12/schodack-amazon-development-real-estate.html

Amazon was never planning to build a distribution center in her district. The massive project in question was a corporate headquarters, and one of the potential sites was in the district next to hers (then represented by Carolyn Maloney).

And AOC had nothing to do with the project’s demise. Amazon decided to build the HQ complex in Virginia after several key New York State legislators withdrew their support for the project in NYC.
