Amazon delivery station approved in Glastonbury — part of company’s growing network in Connecticut

GLASTONBURY — Glastonbury’s plan and zoning commission on Tuesday approved Amazon’s bid for a new distribution station, adding another location in the retail giant’s growing network of facilities in the state.

The existing 104,538-square-foot building at 107 Eastern Boulevard is on a 12.4-acre site. Applicant Winstanley Enterprises plans to install a new steel canopy on the building’s northern side to shelter delivery vans, along with signs and a blue and white paint covering for the entire building.

Amazon delivery stations, according to the company, are meant to provide “last mile” services to residents and businesses within an approximate 60-minute drive of the site.
