Amazon has closed a deal on a new warehouse on the East Side and could spend $61 million renovating it.<\/p>\n
The Seattle-based delivery and tech giant announced that it had closed a deal for a 560,000-square-foot warehouse on Rosillo Creek Boulevard, near Interstate 10 and roughly a mile from several other Amazon facilities.<\/p>\n
The property is valued at $38 million, according to the Bexar County Appraisal District, and was owned by CT, a business unit of Wolters Kluwer, itself a global company focused on information, professional and financial services.<\/p>\n
The land is zoned for industrial use.<\/p>\n
The renovation will focus on the building\u2019s interior, according to records from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, and is being designed by Stantec Architecture.<\/p>\n
\u201cI can confirm we have purchased this property with the intent of opening an operations facility in the area. A lot of work is going into getting the facility operational,\u201d said Allie Payne, an Amazon spokesperson, in an email.<\/p>\n
Payne added that Amazon has invested more than $80 billion in Texas projects since 2010.<\/p>\n
She said it was too early to discuss hiring or employment at the facility.<\/p>\n
Amazon\u2019s purchase along Rosillo Creek Boulevard comes several years after the company rapidly expanded in San Antonio. Between 2020 and 2022, Amazon announced six new facilities in Bexar County<\/a>, including delivery stations and fulfillment centers<\/a>. At the time, Amazon said those facilities created around 2,000 new jobs.<\/p>\n That was part of a wider trend<\/a>. Other companies built out logistics infrastructure in San Antonio, which is located on both the Interstate 35 and I-10 corridors, to meet shipping and last-mile delivery needs<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Amazon has closed a deal on a new warehouse on the East Side and could spend $61 million…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":313339,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5133],"tags":[2431,5229,9734,157872,157873,7202,7203,157874,358,3187,67,586,132,5230,68,2969,11887],"class_list":{"0":"post-313338","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-san-antonio","8":"tag-amazon","9":"tag-america","10":"tag-east-side","11":"tag-new-amazon-warehouse","12":"tag-rosillo-creek-boulevard","13":"tag-san-antonio","14":"tag-sanantonio","15":"tag-stantec-architecture","16":"tag-texas","17":"tag-tx","18":"tag-united-states","19":"tag-united-states-of-america","20":"tag-unitedstates","21":"tag-unitedstatesofamerica","22":"tag-us","23":"tag-usa","24":"tag-wc-less-than-500"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115395074820801752","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=313338"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/313338\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/313339"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=313338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=313338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=313338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
