Is is true that Archie McPhee is moving?
Yes! As of June 1st, 2009, we have moved to our new location in Wallingford at 1300 N 45th St. on the corner of 45th & Stone Way. Although we are sad to leave Ballard, we are also excited by the possibilities of a new location. You may remember we were on Stone Way in the '80s and '90s, so this completes the circle and brings us back to Stone Way in a new location.
