Amazon Is Opening A Second Brick-And-Mortar Store

It looks like the much-anticipated Amazon brick-and-mortar store is going into San Diego’s Westfield’s University Towne Center mall. Last fall, Amazon opened its first Amazon Books (above) at University Village, an upscale open-air shopping center in Seattle.

Westfield's University Towne Center at 4545 La Jolla Village Dr, is an upscale, outdoor shopping mall similar to Seattle's University Village.
