Mysterious ‘Project X’ points to Amazon drive-up grocery store in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood
Amazon is planning to open a drive-up grocery store in Seattle, newly discovered planning documents suggest.
Permit filings uncovered by GeekWire show plans to renovate the former Louie’s Cuisine of China site, at 5100 15th Ave. N.W. in Seattle’s Ballard neighborhood, into a 9,759-square-foot retail space where customers can pick up groceries that they’ve ordered online, in what the project team calls “a new model of grocery shopping.”
The company appears to be doing its best to keep its involvement under wraps. Planning documents filed with the city of Seattle use the mysterious moniker “Project X,” with no reference to the e-commerce giant. Even the people building the project don’t know what’s happening.

RENTON, Wash. – The Seattle Seahawks and Windermere Real Estate announced today an exclusive partnership that will make Windermere the Official Real Estate Company of the Seattle Seahawks.

"But more importantly, I'm thrilled that we'll be able to leverage this new partnership in a way that will help address the persistent homeless crisis we're seeing in the Puget Sound area. Personally, I love knowing that every time one of our Seahawks takes down someone from the opposing team, that's another $100 for YouthCare."
