Harris Marketing moves operation to historic downtown Birmingham building

Lots of factors attracted Harris Marketing Group to its new home in downtown Birmingham, such as location and size. One that was far from overlooked is the story behind the building.

The marketing agency is taking up 3,000 square feet on the second floor of the Bigelow-Shain Building at 102 Pierce. The circa-1860 building was the original home of what is now the Birmingham Eccentric. The community-based newspaper got its start on the second floor of the building a little over 130 years ago.

"This is historic, hallowed ground here," says Janice Rosenhaus, CEO of Harris Marketing Group.

The 2-story building is located less than one block west of Old Woodward Avenue near the center downtown. The building's story, character, and location were the key factors for Harris Marketing Group to move its 15 employees and handful of interns and independent contractors into the building.

"It's right in the center of everything. It's fabulous," Rosenhaus says. "It's a historic building with exposed brick walls. It's like a New York loft."
