(Reuters) - Amazon.com Inc said on Tuesday it had split its $5 billion second headquarters into two projects that would be located in the Long Island City neighborhood of New York City's Queens borough and a Northern Virginia suburb of Washington, DC.

Each would have up to 25,000 jobs and Amazon will create a new facility in Nashville with 5,000 jobs.

The retailer said it will get billions of dollars as direct incentives from the three selected cities, contingent to creating a specific number of jobs.

Below is the break-down of incentives the selected cities are offering the online retail giant: NEW YORK CITY

Total Incentive - $2.81 billion

This includes a refundable tax credit through the state's Excelsior Program of up to $1.2 billion - $48,000 per job for 25,000 jobs with an average wage of over $150,000.

A cash grant from Empire State Development of $325 million.

The incentives will flow over the next decade as Amazon creates more jobs and occupies more buildings.

Amazon is also eligible for a partial property tax abatement through the city's Industrial & Commercial Abatement Program (ICAP) and an annual credit of $3,000 for 12 years per eligible employee under the Relocation and Employment Assistance Program (REAP).

REAP benefits for Amazon's 10-year expansion are projected at $897 million through 2038, while ICAP will abate about $386 million, according to a press release from the city. ARLINGTON, VIRGINIA
