Most of the Microsoft main campus is in Redmond, not Renton. They have some buildings in Bellevue and Seattle. But as far as I know, Microsoft has no office space at all in Renton.
- seanmcdirmid 8y agoReminds me of this classic Almost Live segment about the 425 area code switch over: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=V9jlo4Ht2YA https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=V9jlo4Ht2YA At the end, an east side Bellevue woman snobbishly complains about 425 containing Renton.
- skookumchuck 8y agoLooking back on Almost Live, its local humor is an unintentional treasure of what Seattle was like in the 90's.
- techsupporter 8y agoOr this one ("Cops in Redmond"): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pxGDSucCEI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pxGDSucCEI > And if you cannot afford a lawyer...well, uh, what are you doing living in Redmond? Maybe you meant Renton? They do sound similar, Redmond, Renton... Also, Pat Cashman is a treasure. "Did you have to dial a one...before?"
- seanmcdirmid 8y agoYa, and the communities are so different. The only time an east sider will intentionally go to Renton is if they need to go to IKEA (unless they work for Boeing or Wizards of the Coast).
- cjarrett 8y agoCorrect. I live in Renton, which is very far and terrible drive to redmond 6:15-10 am and from redmond 2pm-6:30pm. They might have a marketing area, but I haven't seen it in the downtown area.
