Port of Seattle Breaks Ground on Maritime Innovation Center
The Port of Seattle broke ground on the renovation and modernization of the historic Ship Supply Building at Fishermen’s Terminal. The project includes plans for a modern Living Building Challenge (LBC) – certified Maritime Innovation Center (MInC).
The new facility will serve a confluence of maritime industry needs that will bring together students and innovators from business, public agencies, and academia, along with community stakeholders. The Port is partnering with firm Miller Hull in the construction of the facility.
“Today’s groundbreaking is a celebration of the Port’s substantial commitment to support innovation as a way to foster the maritime industry’s ability to sustain our region’s blue economy,” said Port of Seattle Commissioner Fred Felleman.
To prepare for the next century of commercial fishing and maritime industrial activity at the terminal, the Port is committing over $100 million in new investments as part of a long-term strategic redevelopment plan to maintain docks for commercial fishers and enhance uplands facilities.
