Amazon.com Inc. is in talks to rent space at Brooklyn’s Industry City for a new logistics facility, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.

The online retail giant could lease as much as 1 million square feet (93,000 square meters), though negotiations are still in the early stages, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the discussions are private. Amazon may also seek out additional logistics properties in New York as it looks to expand its capacity to deliver goods quickly to customers in the city, the person said.
