King County executive unveils new film production facility on Harbor Island
King County Executive Dow Constantine on Saturday unveiled a new film production facility at the former Fisher Flour Mill on Harbor Island.
According to a release, “The 117,000-square-foot sound stage is King County’s first major public investment to bring back a once-thriving film industry and hundreds of family wage, creative economy jobs as the region rebounds post-pandemic.”

The former flour mill has been transformed into two sound stages.
The facility was purchased by King County 18 years ago and was going to be used to potentially ship solid waste. However, contractors rewired and built soundproof walls, among other work, which cost about $1.5 million.
