A rising tide lifts all boats, and on Wednesday, a massive tide arrived.
Amazon, the largest employer in the Greater San Marcos region, announced plans for what will be the largest industrial facility in our two-county region — Hays and Caldwell counties.
The facility, an Amazon SAT-6 facility that will handle receiving and delivery of large equipment like furniture and televisions, is being constructed on 70 acres at the Whisper development (1346 Fortuna Road, located near Yarrington Road). Once completed, it will exceed one million total square feet in size. Construction on the site has already begun and Amazon anticipates operations to begin at the site by the end of 2021.
