Amazon continued its expansion in Colorado Springs last week by paying $9.1 million to buy the former Western Forge manufacturing plant, where the online giant plans to build a second local delivery station.
The company plans to demolish the former hand tool manufacturing complex at 4607 Forge Road, which closed last year after more than 50 years of toolmaking, and replace it with a nearly 105,000-square-foot warehouse and distribution facility that Amazon calls a delivery station, according to plans filed last year with the city of Colorado Springs. The company already operates one such facility near the Colorado Springs Airport, used to make so-called last mile deliveries to online buyers.
