Change of Address

Worldwide Corporate HQ for Marketing By Marlow has relocated from Ballard, Washington to West Seattle

Officially known as “Fairmount Springs,” our new neighborhood is known more by its proximity to Morgan Junction, and perhaps Beveridge Place Pub, our new favorite drinking establishment.

According to 2000 U.S. Census data:

  • Median age of our neighbors is 40
  • Average household size is 2
  • Median household income is $49,338
  • 82% of our neighbors live in homes without children
  • 50.5% are married; 27.9% are single; 14.9% are divorced; and 6.7% are widowed
  • 60% of residents own their homes, while 35% rent (5% are unoccupied)
  • 80% of the workforce is white collar; 20% is blue collar

We’d like to thank our real estate attorney, Scott Scher, and professional appraiser, Dave Watkins, who assisted us in representing ourselves as buyers. We chose NOT to finance through Countrywide – opting instead for our local nonprofit financial institution, Verity Credit Union.

You can reach us at the same land line, provided conveniently by Comcast.

Staffing by Marlow

Through April, while MJ Kelly is on maternity leave, I’m filling in as “interim marketing communications manager” for Cascade Bicycle Club. In my part-time marcom role, I manage the member newsletter (Cascade Courier), the Bike Club websites, and public relations through Richmond PR.

You might find me in February at Chilly Hilly or in March at the Group Health Seattle Bike Expo. Meanwhile, keep reading my monthly Cyclist of the Month column in the Courier.
