The Boeing Everett Factory, in Everett, Washington, is an airplane assembly building owned by Boeing. Located on the northeast corner of Paine Field, it is the largest building in the world by volume at 13,385,378 m3 (472,370,319 cu ft) and covers 399,480 m2 (98.3 acres).[1] It is where Boeing 747s, 767s, 777s, and the new 787 Dreamliner are assembled. Plans for the factory were first announced in 1966 for it to be the site of the construction of the 747 after Boeing was awarded a $525 million contract from Pan American Airlines to build 25 747s. It purchased 780 acres north of the little used army airfield Paine Field. Boeing had an Everett presence since 1943[2] In 1968 it began offering factory tours with the first roll out of the 747.The factory includes a BECU branch, 6 Tully's Coffee stands (1 of which is in the delivery center), and several cafés. Across the airport to the west is The Boeing Store, a theater, and Future of Flight Aviation Center & Boeing Tour, which runs factory tours.The Boeing 747 was the first ever wide-body aircraft to be produced. The Boeing Everett Factory was originally designed and built to assemble the Boeing 747 as there was not enough room at the Boeing facilities in Seattle. The 747-8 is currently in production in the Everett factory.
