BATON ROUGE — Amazon plans to open a new Baton Rouge facility on Tom Drive, according to a report by The Advocate

61 North Logistics Center, measuring 240,000 square feet, will be the location of Amazon's newest operation center just over a mile away from Amazon's fulfillment center at Cortana Place. 

The new facility will be the fourth built in Baton Rouge alongside the Cortana Place center, the regional sortation center in Port Allen and a distribution center near Rieger Road. 

Amazon previously built a drone hub at the Cortana Place center to launch its Prime Air drone delivery.
