Thanks for the tip. Via email, the West Seattle branch of Row House (4203 SW Oregon) announced today that it’s closing in four weeks:

It is with sincere gratitude and heavy hearts we share the news that Row House West Seattle will be closing its doors permanently. Our final day of classes will be Sunday, July 27th. Despite being listed for sale over the past year, a transition was not secured, and a new business will be assuming the lease August 4th.

Over the years, your support, dedication, and energy have created a vibrant, inspiring community, one that we’ve been honored to be a part of. The friendships formed, progress achieved, and spirit shared within these walls have meant more to us than words can express.

With this chapter coming to an end, we still have a full month to finish strong. We are planning themed rows and celebrations for our final month, so let’s fill these classes and go out with a bang!

We will be issuing prorated refunds for active memberships and class packages. If you have any questions about your membership, please reach out to westseattlegm@therowhouse.com and we will be happy to assist you.

Thank you again for being a part of the Row House West Seattle community. Your commitment and passion have truly been the heartbeat of the studio. Once a crew, always a crew.

Sincerely,
The Row House West Seattle Team

No indication yet what that “new business” is; the space has been listed for sublease for several months. Row House is affiliated with a nationwide chain of indoor-rowing studios, and has been open in West Seattle for almost six years.

Now this is the proper way a business informs its clients they are shuttering unlike the way Bronz’d did a couple months ago in WWV.

Transfer your membership to SLU! It’s a great studio with fantastic coaches. It’s just 15-20 minutes drive for the 6:30 am class, with plenty of free street parking before 8 am. There’s free street parking on Sundays and in a nearby lot in the evenings too. Keep the meters going and join us!! Your membership supports a local coach and mom who owns the studio too!

Alas, south lake union Row House is too far for people who bus. I’m going to have to go to LA Fitness once again. That was my favorite place to work out. I was a regular. I’m very sad.

Rowhouse SLU is amazing, I highly recommend the team there!

I am crushed about this closing. Comes as a complete surprise to me. Row House has been such a welcoming community. Did not know it had been listed for several months.

Unfortunately this place was wildly overpriced, considering they have no facilities to shower, etc.I, too, loved it there, but was priced out.

  Holy crap you aren’t kidding, I didn’t know until I just looked it up. $180/mo? Rowing is pretty great, but you could get your own used concept2 for like 3-4 months of membership cost?

    You do not get the coaching or the community when you row on your own erg at home, that is the difference. For me the cost breaks down to about $6.50 a day and that was worth it to me. This has been the best 4+ years of fitness in my whole 48 years and I am beyond bummed that we are losing Row House West Seattle.
