Amazon is closing its fulfillment center on Goose Island in River North and laying off 211 employees, the company reported in a state filing Monday. The company will support affected employees in finding new positions “within Amazon, including at nearby operations sites,” said Sam Stephenson, a spokesperson for Amazon, in a statement Friday. “We’re always evaluating our network to make sure it fits our business needs and to improve the experience for our employees, customers, and partners,” Stephenson said.
