NEWARK, Calif. (KGO) -- Amazon looks to be opening its first warehouse in the Bay Area.
The Silicon Valley Business Journal is reporting that Amazon has leased a giant warehouse building in Newark at Cherry Street and Robertson Avenue.
It hasn't been officially announced, but the e-commerce giant is advertising to hire "fulfillment associates" for Newark.
Newark's mayor says this will mean a couple hundred local jobs.
Amazon already has a research and development lab in Sunnyvale.
