Business Week in Review

The top story

Production problems have pushed the delivery and test flights of the Boeing Co.'s 787 at least six months down the road. Analysts say the delay isn't uncommon in a production plan as huge as building a new aircraft with new materials, but some customers say they aren't happy. Boeing says it hopes to catch up quickly.

The new college

Experts involved in evaluating the location for a branch of the University of Washington in Snohomish County say that local politics and pride won't have a lot to do with the decision. The key issues, they say, are how the school can help students and how it fits into the university system.

The demolition

Preparations have begun for tearing down the Elks Club building in downtown Everett, which has housed the social club for the past 100 years. What was once a key location for community social events and activities will come tumbling down to be replaced by a $30 million high-rise that will have 200 condominiums and apartments geared for downtown living.

The topping off

The Tulalip Tribes has completed the structure of its 12-story luxury hotel adjacent to its casino and outlet mall. In a ceremony Thursday to thank workers and bless the building, tribal officials said studies indicate they may want to build a second hotel tower soon.
