I feel like she lived in a small house. I can only recall Marlena/Sam's scenes right now and before Sam took over her life it looked like a house/cottage.  Her and Don seemed to have an apartment that I assume was his? I remember when FosterkidJohnny gave Kellam the key to Marlena/Don's house it had multiple other doors nearby in a hallway. She had a nice apartment/possible penthouse when she divorced Don and Roman moved in with his sleeping bag.  Someone might know better than me, but that's just what it looked like from clips. @JAS0N47 probably has the set lists to clarify.

Thank you. So did both DJ and Sam die in Marlena and Don’s place?

No.  DJ died in Marlena/Don's shared apartment. That's also where Kellam raped her.  Marlena had moved by the time Sam died.  I think Gwen Davies was her roomate at the time.  It's definitely two different sets.  I think Marlena moves again after into some sort of penthouse, then marries Roman, and they obviously live in the Brady house until John buys Marlena the awesome penthouse after Belle's birth and then we move on to the current Townhouse/Penthouse of today.

I will have to look the set up.  I did like Bo/Hope's house, especially when it returned in 2015 (temporarily).

I remember Bo & Hope's house was a repurposed Jack & Jennifer house with a different kitchen setting and backyard (when used). Unfortunately, nowadays, the Bo & Hope house is represented by that small room with all those tacky mis-matched prints all over the room that is also dressed for many various bedrooms. 

I think the last time we saw Caroline & Shawn Brady's house was when Leann Rimes played a runaway, and had her talk-to discussions with Kimberly Brady (who popped in a few times) and Jensen Ackles' Eric in spring of 1998. 

Before that, they used it around late summer 1996 when Sami's baby Will was stolen. Why do I remember such random stuff. 

And yes, the Martin house set was a wasted opportunity.

We haven't seen that small room in years, and hope it stays that way, lmao.

Easily could have been someone's home. EASILY!

Thanks. All I have seen of Marlena’s pre-Roman life was that montage of flashbacks of Marlena and Sam when Marlena met Hattie (Andrea) for the first time.

The Brady house was shown in 2003 for Caroline’s wake. It was a different set/room though.

Got you.  I am doing this mostly from memory so I could be wrong.  I never saw full episodes of this era but just by judging from the clips I have I can tell some sets are different.  I have a clip post Roman proposing and Anna appearing with Carrie where Marlena buys/rents some sort of penthouse.  It may have been Alex's?  Soapcentral just says various locations for her homes before 1983, but lists the same address as the OG Penthouse as her current home so they might be wrong.  Unless this penthouse is supposed to be the 90's penthouse with a different set like GH's Sonny's penthouse set now.

Thanks!  That mostly lines up with my memories of clips.  I think Don/Marlena's apartment was the same just without Don because he moved in with Liz?  I get a little confused with that as well, but it appears that Marlena rents the Penthouse after all the serial killer stuff, so the Roman/Marlena initial scenes are in her/Don's apartment.

 

Marlena's Apartment (9/29/76-6/29/77)

 

Marlena's Gate House (7/5/77-3/5/79)

Wonder why they moved Marlena to a new apartment after 6 months on the show?

Did Don have a residence before marrying Marlena? He had been on the show for years by that stage, but maybe he was always at the office, Doug's place or visiting other people's homes?

I think it was more to give Marlena a more permanent set?  I think Don mostly always had that apartment that Marlena/Don lived in.

Probably. I guess they didn't know Marlena would take off as a character (she was obviously there to fill in for Laura initially) so her first apartment set was just likely a re-dressed temporary set that they didn't give much thought into. I guess once it was obvious she was taking off on the canvas they probably wanted to give her something more "her".

Yeah..I think Deidre either was recurring or had a short term contract starting out, so once the show decided to keep Marlena they just gave her a set.  The gatehouse set was pretty cute.

Speaking of sets that I liked, I loved John/Isabella's loft.  I know tons of people lived there, but I always thought the set up of the place was cool.  They brought it back for KL's Brady and it just disappeared after a few years.  It would be a great place for Brady/Tate to currently live.

I loved that loft. But I tend to think of it as well, I'm not entirely sure. Maybe Steve's. But, yes, so many different people lived there.

I think both Jack/Jen and Carly lived there.  Can't remember if Steve did.  I would still say I identify it most with John though.

That loft lived on into JER 2.0. It was where Belle and Philip lived when they were married, and Shawn and Mimi had an apartment across the hall (which later was redone into Sami & Rafe's place and then into the Ciara/Claire/Tripp apartment). I'm guessing the last time we saw the loft was maybe 2006-07?
