Even though the Crystal Palace project is still in its infancy, one group is already thinking ahead. Working Washington is trying to make sure that local workers will be involved in the ambitious project for Federal Way’s downtown.
Amelia Vassar and Mia Franklin, representatives of Working Washington, attended the Federal Way City Council’s Oct. 4 meeting. They had some suggestions on how to ensure the local labor pool is tapped, if and when construction begins on the proposed Crystal Palace project. The project is slated for the 4.1-acre AMC Theatres site on 20th Avenue South, near the transit center.
