Amazon informó recientemente a la ciudad de Marana que los 500 a 700 empleados proyectados para su nuevo almacén en Silverbell Rd e Ina Rd. se redujeron a 200.
“Planean un avance lentoâ€, dijo Jason Angell, director de servicios de desarrollo de Marana. “Van a incorporarse gradualmente, pero esperan comenzar a operar este otoñoâ€.
Amazon no le dio a Marana una razón para la reducción de puestos de trabajo y no respondió a una solicitud de entrevista del ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥.
Pero el minorista en lÃnea cerró o canceló planes para más de 25 almacenes en todo el paÃs el mes pasado. Ninguno en ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥.

Desde 2020, Amazon aumentó su espacio de almacenamiento de 272 millones de pies cuadrados a 525 millones de pies cuadrados a fines de 2021.
Solo en °Õ³Ü³¦²õó²Ô, la compañÃa tiene cinco sitios.
Pero los analistas dicen que la inflación y los compradores que regresan a las tiendas en 2022 afectaron la demanda en lÃnea.
Un complejo de departamentos junto a las instalaciones de Marana, en las calles Silverbell e Ina, está avanzando.
El desarrollador Ross McCallister, director de MC Companies, dijo que el sitio fue elegido antes de que Amazon anunciara sus planes para operar allÃ.
“Creemos que el área de Marana está desatendida con departamentos, por eso elegimos ese sitio, además de su proximidad a los servicios del área, asà como el fácil acceso a la I-10 y los centros de empleo del centro, la UA y el aeropuertoâ€, dijo. “Si bien esperaba tener a todos estos empleados al lado, también estaba nervioso por la actividad las 24 horas (asà que) no me preocupa que los recortes de Amazon nos afectenâ€.
Se espera que The Place at Silverbell Gateway, un complejo de departamentos de lujo de 300 unidades, en 7430 N. Silverbell Road, abra sus puertas el próximo año.
Aerial photos of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in 1968
Looking north from Arroyo Chico, still more or less an open pit, where it crossed S. Cherry Ave. (lower right) in this aerial photo of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. At that time, Cherry was a popular thoroughfare, extending from 29th Street through the University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ campus and past Speedway Blvd. It was cut into pieces with the expansion of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Stadium, the Arroyo Chico flood control project, and the Kino Parkway extension.
The clean, straight University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Mall splits the campus in two in this aerial photo looking west from ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Blvd. in December, 1968. The 100-foot-tall Meinel Optcal Sciences Building is under construction on open land cleared for more expansion, in the left side of the photo.
Looking east at the West University neighborhood and the University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ Campus, center, from roughly Stone Ave. in this aerial photo of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. 6th Avenue is at the very bottom. Catalina Park is lower left.
Sahuaro High School, which opened for students in August, 1968, in the center surrounded by new subdivisions in this aerial photo southwest across ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. The one swath of open desert across the street from the high school did not stay that way for long.
Downtown ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ with "A" Mountain and Tumamoc Hill in the distance in this aerial photo of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. Homes and businesses in the old barrio have been razed to make way for the TCC and Symphony Hall, left. The Southern Pacific RR hospital (now Evo DeConcini U.S. District Courthouse) is in the center of the photo. The Pima County Administration building is nearly complete, but construction on the Superior Court building has not begun. Stone Avenue, at bottom, still has the large department stores – Penney's, Jacome's, Steinfeld's. But their existence was doomed by El Con Mall a few miles to the east.
Rolling Hills Golf Course and new houses around it along a two-lane (and partly dirt) Golf Links Road in this aerial photo of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. St. Augustine Catholic High School sits on the right side in the large open plot just above the golf course. The "V" building – the only structure on the Southside of Golf Links, is still there. It's the New Life Wesleyan Church.
22nd Street stretches east from Houghton Road in ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in this aerial photo of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. In the center, Old Spanish Trail crosses 22nd Street, then Harrison Road. The land surrounding that intersection is now paved over with myriad retail businesses. At least two of the homes in the foreground are still there, surrounded by packed subdivisions.
The new Interstate 10 loops through South ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in this aerial photo looking southeast in December, 1968. In the distance, the new interstate hooks right and connects back to Benson Highway – the old US 80. Southgate Shopping Center and the new, concrete-lined Julian Wash are at right. The black line at left is the El Paso and Southwestern RR tracks, then still in use.
And rising from the desert is the De Anza Drive-In theatre on Alvernon Way, south of 22nd Street, in this aerial photo of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. To the left, across Alvernon and barely visible, is the Magic Carpet Slide. In the background, the Bermuda grass at Randolph golf course at Reid Park has gone dormant for the winter.
The shades of the future mesh with ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥'s past in this aerial photo of downtown ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ in December, 1968. The new Interstate 10 is largely complete, with bridged crossings over ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ streets. The bulldozed barrio is obvious (at left), but there are still remnants of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥'s architectural pride: The Carnegie Library (foreground center) is beautiful, the majestic Hotel Santa Rita to its right, and several modest, quirky hotels, theaters and brick buildings with character.
Broadway Road looking west from Swan Road, ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥, in 1968. The wide Venice Stravenue is the street visible in foreground. The Midstar Plaza is at left. The mid-rise office building at 4400 E. Broadway is under construction, just above the plaza in the photo.
