Amazon bought 600 Friberg Parkway in Westborough in November 2022.
Amazon Data Services Inc. purchased two properties in Grafton and Westborough from an affiliate of Boston financial services firm State Street Corp. for a total of $26.7 million on Thursday, according to the Worcester District Registry of Deeds.
In Grafton, Amazon bought a 155,000-square-foot flex building on a 1.8-acre lot at 8 Centennial Drive for $15.1 million. The property is part of CenTech Park, a 121-acre technology park located in Grafton and Shrewsbury.
In Westborough, Amazon bought 600 and 800 Friberg Parkway for $11.6 million. The building at 600 Friberg, a State Street data center, is 99,160 square feet. The 11-acre lot was last sold for $6.5 million in 1992, according to the Westborough Assessor’s Office. The two lots are a combined 19 acres.
Amazon, the Seattle-based online retailer, did not respond to a request for information as to what the properties’ use would be. Amazon Web Services operates high security data centers across the country, serving its cloud-computing business.
The purchase expands Amazon’s overall operations in Westborough, where it bought a 93-acre lot with an industrial office park for $65 million last year, is expanding its 100,000-square-foot building Amazon Robotics’ manufacturing facility at 50 Otis St. to 350,000 square feet, and is leasing a 100,00-square-foot high-bay industrial building at 54 Otis St. under construction.
