Boeing does it again. I worked at the Harbour Pointe site since it first opened until retiring over a year ago and during the last few years, rumor was going around that the site was going to close. We would have meetings often and the question would come up about closing. The general supervisor would tell us no, just a rumor. All the time they were moving people out and different shops to Everett. So the moral of the story is when Boeing says they’re not going to do something, believe the opposite. Remember in 1989 when there was the rumor Boeing and McDonald Douglas merging? Boeing said, “Oh no.” Ha ha, I rest my case.
I bet Renton and Spokane will be next. Renton will move to Everett (more traffic) and Spokane will close.
