Amazon.com applied for a permit for a $2.5 million installation of two platforms in its Cecil Commerce Center fulfillment warehouse.
It also recently applied to install a $2.5 million racking system.
The work takes the project closer to opening early next year. A spokeswoman said last week Amazon would start hiring 1,000 full-time workers a few months before that, but she did not specify dates.
The 1 million-square-foot warehouse is under development at 13333 103rd St. in AllianceFlorida at Cecil Commerce Center in West Jacksonville.
Wynright Corp., a material handling system company, is listed as the contractor for the platform project.
Amazon, the Seattle-based internet retailer, will use the Westside facility to handle and ship large consumer items such as furniture and sporting goods.
City legislation said it would employ 1,200 workers, although the spokeswoman provided a lower number.
The Cecil Commerce Center project will start operations after the Northwest Jacksonville fulfillment center at 12900 Pecan Park Road opens about September.
Amazon has been hiring 1,500 full-time employees for the Pecan Park Road facility to pick, pack and ship small consumer goods.
Meanwhile, the Amazon sortation center in development at Westside Industrial Park, expected to employ about 200 people, is in review for a guardhouse.
Hitt Contracting Inc. is the contractor for the manufactured structure to be installed at 4948 Bulls Bay Highway.
Fidelity Investments was approved for a $9.5 million renovation in the Deerwood North office park for its customer contact center.
The city approved a permit Friday for Brasfield & Gorrie LLC to renovate 58,000 square feet on the third and fourth floors at 4600 Touchton Road E., Building 100.
Brasfield & Gorrie was approved in April for interior demolition of the space at a cost of $800,000.
Fidelity said in October 2015 it would invest $13 million as part of a local expansion.
Fidelity Investment’s plans show offices, open office space, meeting rooms, a café and seating area, learning centers, a lounge area and other functions, as well as a central open area between the floors and a connecting stairwell.
Fidelity is preparing the space for the 300 jobs it pledged to hire by year-end 2018. The city and state agreed to $2.6 million in taxpayer incentives to add the financial services, investment banking and IT support jobs.
Fidelity said the additional jobs would pay an average annual salary of $64,356.
It also plans to renovate its existing offices in Building 400. That boosts the total investment in construction costs to $11.8 million.
Northeast Florida Contracting Inc. landed a permit to remodel space at 3563 St. Johns Ave. for Barrique Kitchen & Wine Bar.
It will remodel the 5,030-square-foot space in The Shoppes of Avondale at a job cost of $550,000. It is the former Cowford Traders retail location.
The restaurant will seat 100 diners, a number agreed upon during the zoning process.
Partner Greg Bartolotta said Tuesday the restaurant is on schedule to open in late September or early October.
Décor will resemble an old world winery or wine cellar. The menu will be global, but with a Mediterranean slant.
