Amazon Flex Opens First Puget Sound Location in Former Bartell Drugs Space

Amazon has opened its first Seattle-area Flex location at Roosevelt Square and is leasing a former Bartell Drugs space.

Amazon Flex is part of the company’s “last-mile” network, which launched in 2015. The newly opened Flex location is situated in a 15,514-square-foot space on the second floor of the retail center, according to the Puget Sound Business Journal. Amazon operates Flex sites in all 50 states, including seven outposts in Washington. The new Roosevelt Square site is the company’s first in the Puget Sound region.

Roosevelt Square, located near the University of Washington campus, is home to a former Bartell Drugs space after the drug chain vacated the property in 2023 as part of a larger shuttering of stores. Kidder Mathews broker John Chelico is the leasing agent for the shopping center. Regency Centers, a Jacksonville-based real estate investment trust, owns Roosevelt Square, as well as Seattle’s Broadway Market, Eastgate Plaza in Bellevue and Southcenter Plaza in Tukwila.
