About Us

ABOUT STATION 7

Based in a retired 1920s firehouse, Station 7 is a home and dry goods shop with a focus on local and handmade goods: over 70% of what we carry in-shop belongs to local, women-owned businesses.

Offering a wide variety of goods, including jewelry, books, plants, ceramics, stationery, candles, gift items, personal care products and much more, we're proudly located in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Started by Danielle Tilden, then her daughter Lauren Tilden, Station 7 is now proudly operated by Mary Jensen, who has worked for Lauren Tilden for almost 5 years now.

We're proudly an AAPI, disabled-owned business ☺️.

THE FIREHOUSE & PATIO

Look closely between the original arched carriage doors and you’ll see the original terra cotta plaque in the shape of a shield, which reads SFD (Seattle Fire Department). The firehouse was built in 1920 and remained active until 1970.

The restored patio features reclaimed old-growth fir and steel benches with beautiful steel planters made by Ballard artist David Tuthill Metals. We hope you find it to be a welcoming place to visit, relax, and connect with friends.

HI , I'M MARY ✨

You’ll find me at Station 7, a thoughtful and unique gift shop in Capitol Hill, which I hope reflects my passion for community and connection.

With a BA in Marketing from Seattle University, my journey began in the wedding industry as a Coordinator, sparking a deep love for connecting with people and creating unforgettable experiences. My love only deepened, taking on roles at the American Heart Association and with Microsoft, strengthening the skills and creativity that I'd need in the community and events space.

Taking the leap to own Station 7 has allowed me to merge my creativity with my desire to create a space of connection.

As a Seattle native, I feel lucky I'm able to blend my love for the PNW into my business, curating a collection of local artists that resonates with the community. And as the proud owner of Station 7, I'm dedicated to bringing warmth, joy and love to the space that all can enjoy.

Outside of my professional life, you'll find me spending time with my son, Bennett, husband Drew, and our pitbull, Addie Bear.
