A new Amazon Fulfillment Center is being built in Arlington, Wash., the company announced Thursday.
The City of Arlington had been under a strict confidentiality agreement during the development permitting process. The development had been known as “Project Roxy.”
The building will be located at 172nd Street and 51st Avenue, south of the Arlington Airport in the city’s Cascade Industrial Center.
In January, while developers had not specified which company would be using the facility, neighbors were thinking that the size and scope was only suited for Amazon.
