As a person who regularly commutes from Brooklyn to Manhattan for work I'm never home to accept my Amazon deliveries. To make matters worse, the local UPS, FedEx and USPS offices always "lose" my package only to have either never show up or it is re-delivered weeks later with no notification.
Why don't they just leave it in vestibule or on my doorstep? Thieves. All delivery carriers just plain refuse to leave packages unattended.
This solution is basically an Amazon locker or PO Box that lives in my lobby? Sounds awesome. Amazon Hub might not make sense in rural areas but Amazon's biggest target lives in urban areas. I'm so ready for this.
