Amazon brings one-hour delivery to Baltimore

The online retail giant is expanding Prime Now after an initial launch in New York City.

Baltimore continues to benefit from being the home of a million-square-foot Amazon warehouse.
The online retail giant announced Thursday that it is expanding its one-hour delivery service to Baltimore. Prime Now is launching in “select ZIP codes.” A release said the service would “expand rapidly” to other areas.
Prime Now is available to Amazon Prime subscribers through a mobile app. The one-hour delivery service costs an additional $7.99 per order, and is available each day from 8 a.m.-10 p.m. Two-hour delivery is free.
Amazon also expanded the service to Miami on Thursday. It was already offered in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
