Update October 28:

They're coming to Charleston! Details.


First reporting:

In what would be one of the happiest manufacturing announcements to hit the Charleston area in years, Boeing is looking more and more poised to pick Charleston.

Sure, the news about South Carolina offering tax incentives helps, but the story has already moved forward.

The story here is that talks between Boeing and a union have once again soured and the word is boeing could make a choice within days (or sooner) on if it will come to Charleston.

Hop over to The Seattle Times to see what's up.
