Hard to believe historic Pike Place Market was nearly demolished in 1971 because the city council and business leaders wanted to replace it with “luxury apartment towers and a high-rise hotel, upscale offices and a seven-story parking garage.” We’re lucky the people of Seattle voted to preserve it.
I had no idea the vendors move around the market and they vie every day for their spot. Absolutely fascinating...thank you for sharing all that inside scoop!!!
I watch every luxury/normal real estate video I can on YT from billionaire homes to regular ones and your channel is the BEST one. You clearly put in so much work and it makes a huge difference!
From a consumer's perspective, they need to be in the same booth each time. If it's somewhere we go regulalary, we will know what to find where. If it's not always in the same spot, I doubt many people will take the time to hunt it down the day they actually need/want it.
Monica…loved Pike’s Peak.. while on vacation there I would wake up everyday and head to Pikes peak for fresh fruits and the Flowers are so amazing… one of my favorite city’s.. would love to see more videos like this💕
Thanks for taking us behind the scenes at the Market! Helps me to understand what the vendors are thinking about with their business. Need to visit again and experience the new overlook.
I totally got a few of those hair peices when I was 9. Right around the time I got those sand stuffed lizzards which you can still find there! Even though so much has changed with the new extension and overlook park, so much has stayed the same and I love that.
Monica, loved watching this vlog, it had everything and we live in Port Townsend and love going to Pike Market and what you shared just makes you want to get on the Bainbridge ferry and visit it again and again! Really terrific!
Worked street markets for years, best pitches are by the entrance, punters see your goods coming in, if they don't buy coming in, they can decide to buy before leaving. It's handy they have overnight storage so you don't need to buy a van. Should have asked the daily price for the stall
I lived there for 12 years and Seattle is one of the most beautiful cities!! The weather is not something that I enjoyed, but I have the best memories. Greetings from the sunny California.
I always love the pike place market. I went there so much when I lived on first hill in the 90’s. I walked all over downtown almost every day. One place you noted that I’m so happy to see is still there is the Alibi Room. My best friend and I went there a lot. One cool thing about that is they had Movie scripts there you could read while you were there. I wonder if you noticed if they still do that.
Great video of your friends business at Pike Place market and the apartment tour. I just moved into downtown and love the buildings, businesses and people! Thank you for sharing!
This was such a cool video to watch! I loved getting to learn about the BTS of working at the market. I visited Seattle last year and fell in love. My dream would be to buy a place in each one of my favorite cities so I could just hop on a flight and get there in a flash ❤
Monica, this was a great video. I loved the market and learning about your friends business,. The tour of the condo was also really fun. How fun would it be to live that close to everything. I would never eat at home. I love your videos, so well done!
Love your videos and I LOVE that condo!!! It's always a happy day when you post a video and this one was extra special with all the behind the scenes views. I even ordered an 8 pack of hair wraps.
@@monicachurchrealtor I will! I didn’t get to Seattle this year, so I got to bring Seattle colors to me. Love watching your life and had to support such a cool woman owned business. I think I’d love to live her life!!!
Le Panier is always my go-to for bread and shortbread cookies. Wonderful even though the original owner retired the recipes are the same. Etta's is a little pricey but consistently good. On Western the Spice shop is amazing & the Paris-Madrid Grocer is a sweet little hidden gem.
@@monicachurchrealtor Wow! I was just down there last month and didn't even notice! I was part of the cooking crew at the original Dahlia (1904 4th Ave- my ex was the location manager for the film Sleepless in Seattle & he suggested the Dahlia for the scene in the restaurant.) It was an exciting time to work there pre-empire so have a soft spot for Tom's ventures. I'll check it out. Thanks for the update! I love the market (especially early or late) and grateful so much is unchanged after decades. Love that little condo too. Glad to have found your channel.
The gum wall is my literal worst nightmare. I hate gum! The thought of it, the smell of it, the sound of it - it makes me gag out loud. But an entire WALL or CHEWED GUM? OMG, Im so upset lol
I’m so jaded because it’s all so trashy anymore. You did a really good job not showing that part. I kind of forget why I used to love that place so much!!
The weather in Seattle looks sublime. Everything is so affordable too. I can’t wait to move there!! Edit: I just saw the gum wall. It looks so cool!! I can’t wait to touch my whole face and hair to the wall and really feel the culture of Seattle
@VeronicaHenderson-i8q I have a feeling they're being waggish 😅... also, the smooshing their face and hair into the gumwall 😝 unless 🤷 that's their thang
👋 Monica, Have you ever heard of a TH-camr name Michel Janse? She is from Texas and currently she lived in Oceanside, California with her musician husband Jordy Searcy and fur baby Max.
I live across the sound in kitsap county and haven’t been to downtown in years. Is it really dangerous in pike place or is safe enough to bring a kid? My daughter is 4 and i want her to experience the magic i felt as a kid with my mom, but don’t want to bring her if it’s not safe.
Magical memories can be made as well at Sheraton's Gingerbread Village-we like to check it out when we go to the Thanksgiving parade-great way to kick off the holidays ❤
Great video merging your real estate skills and fun spots in Seattle! Omg rando dude lives on Tinder and works lame line on every cute girl with a camera. Great comeback! 💍 ✋🏻 🛑
A local that drives her car right into the center of Pike Place Market and fiddles with her GoPro. Wow. I always thought those were just dumbass tourists. I need to move to Europe so bad. I can't deal with America much longer 😂

The BTS of the vendors is fascinating! Thanks to Camilla for sharing
LOVE Beecher’s!
I love that condo! Would be so nice to be able to walk to so many things!
Camilla's hair wraps are adorable. It's cool she can make a living at that.
I chuckled at the "I'm not on Tinder" :D
I watch every luxury/normal real estate video I can on YT from billionaire homes to regular ones and your channel is the BEST one. You clearly put in so much work and it makes a huge difference!
Getting to know more about Camila and her mom's shop is so cool. Thanks for sharing Monica
I grew up going to Pike Market visiting family the lived in Seattle and Bellevue. My niece would always get your friends hair accessory 🥰
I went there for the first time in July on vacation (lifetime east coast dweller) and it was awesome! Great weather too!
My daughter is 17 now but I remember buying her one of those hair wraps when she was little! Btw, you can get a giant tray of Beecher’s at Costco! 😋

I was going to say the same thing. If I had a favorite bread person I’d want to find them quickly.

I’m sorry / I’m from the the old school era …but this young lady and her mom just next level special
And only $750,000? So affordable. Let me look in my couch, I think I may have it. 😂😂😂

Zig Zag is my all time favorite bar in Seattle. Shout out to Ben and staff for serving the best cocktails and burger.

Amazing video and cool behind the scenes of the market!
thanks for going above and beyond on this video actually showing us specific places!

What a lovely video. Will keep an eye out for her booth next time we visit. I hope you have success with this video and have a lovely day.
Thank you!

Love the vibe of this video 😊
Such a great video, really itching to book a flight to Seattle now 😂
😢 yeah, so cool to work so closely. To the place to live, I don't think cease to sell the condo. She should keep it. And live there forever.
I'll pop down to the market sometime this week or next and pick up one of those hair things as a holiday gift. Thanks for the scoop!

Love watching your life and had to support such a cool woman owned business. I think I’d love to live her life!!!
I love going to The Market. I always get flowers and chocolate croissants at Three Sisters Bakery. And what gorgeous condo!!
Love this video! So cool to see behind the scenes of Pike Place Market.
Ok, I had to laugh 😂. You are Not on Tinder! Great video Monica ♥️
Excellent work! Love the video!
I went to Seattle a week ago and the people were so nice of course some bad apples but really gray overall
Last time I went to Pike Place it was just the front.
We would get clam chowder ever time we would go to SEA 😊
That was over 30yrs ago!
The house prices in Seattle is catching up to California which is insane. There is no more affordability in buying a house anymore.
That’s smart they’re never in the same spot so that they keep people walking around to find what they came for
Pufftown is opening there soon. Right where you entered at Virginia and Pike.❤
🎉 it looked like so much fun.
Le Panier is always my go-to for bread and shortbread cookies. Wonderful even though the original owner retired the recipes are the same. Etta's is a little pricey but consistently good. On Western the Spice shop is amazing & the Paris-Madrid Grocer is a sweet little hidden gem.
Etta’s is no longer there 😭 but Tom Douglas added a new restaurant called half shell in its place.

Can you talk about the appreciation value of townhomes and condos? PS love the video!

Never been but would love to go -really enjoyed the video!
Le Panier is also great for French pastries and there is a good Masala Chai stand outside but I can't remember the name.
Condo is so expensive in Seattle Monica, how about a tent in a nice encampment there? Can I live nicely there on my $750 Social Security check? 😂😂😂
Amazing job, love the video!
❤ the home is gorgeous 🥰

Everything is not affordable in Seattle. It's expensive to live here!😊

I think it’s safe! I understand your concern, they’ve cleaned downtown up a lot.

Do the twists she makes get stuck in curly hair?
Excellent video!
Great video!
Where is the jacket from????
How much are the monthly cues?
what does no "schluter", "shutter" mean?
Do you think after the election it might affect the housing market?
Hahaha!!! Show them the ring girl!!$ show them!! 😅👏🏻👏🏻
nice video!
Curious why you don’t run Airbnb in Seattle instead of Palm Springs ?
Great video merging your real estate skills and fun spots in Seattle! Omg rando dude lives on Tinder and works lame line on every cute girl with a camera. Great comeback! 💍 ✋🏻 🛑
I wuv Seattle 🌲♥
Amazing video, Beautiful..
See l love videos like this about things I’ve been to, but not the history or going ons of.
@Monica BTS: "That's Going On TH-cam"
Monica is on Tinder!!!! ❤lol😂
Why do you own a Car if you Live Downtown? The Bus system downtown is so good you don't need to drive
😂Be gentle omg get out of that elevator 😂
I’m not on tinder😂😂😂
Wait a second are you Shelby’s sister?
Yes, she is. Twins even 👍
That place looks so nice. Makes me wanna move to Seattle.
Tinder? That was weird
🏙
First
How rude of him!
A local that drives her car right into the center of Pike Place Market and fiddles with her GoPro. Wow. I always thought those were just dumbass tourists.
I need to move to Europe so bad. I can't deal with America much longer 😂
I can’t believe they have to schlep everything every day.
14:26 she’s on tinder…
I hate Seattle with a passion.
Why?
