LONDON, ONT. Construction began Monday on what is widely believed to be a massive new Amazon fulfillment centre at the site of the former Ford auto plant on Colonel Talbot Road although Amazon itself has yet to confirm reports. Heavy machinery could be seen at the site moving earth, while it appeared mobile offices were being set up. All sights and sounds of progress where there had been none for several years. Former London city controller Gord Hume, now a known expert on city-building and municipal governance, says landing Amazon is a major coup that most communities would be envious of.

The sale of the site was confirmed just last week, although a buyer was not publicly identified. The Ford plant closed in 2011 after 44 years assembling cars, and about 1,100 people lost their jobs. The plant on 254 hectares of land was torn down in 2015. The site was listed for sale that year for $22.75 million.
