NEW YORK — Amazon.com will be opening its first brick-and-mortar store in midtown Manhattan, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal published Thursday, citing people familiar with the plans.
The site is expected to open on 34th St. for the holiday-shopping season.
According to the report, the site will primarily serve as a click-and-pick-up location but will also serve as a distribution center for local couriers.
