View through the window of the Amazon Fresh store in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
Amazon had announced an Amazon Fresh store for Gaithersburg in 2020, taking over a building that previously housed an Office Depot. Following a long buildout and setup process for "Just Walk Out" technology, work on the store eventually ceased. Amazon formally cancelled this store in spring 2023, and removed its signage from the building. The plans were revived about a year later, and the location opened as Amazon Fresh on August 8, 2024.

This photo was taken during the approximately yearlong period when the store was in a state of limbo. Despite the removal of the exterior signage, the interior of the store was very much still built out for Amazon, though the originally intended "Just Walk Out" equipment had been removed.
