We are at the Gelb Building in U-District, Seattle. The full postal address is 4534½ University Way NE, Seattle, WA 98105-4511 (Google Maps, Apple Maps, GeoHack).

You should probably take the light rail to get here. The U-District station is a a block away.

By Bike

Do not lock any bike you care about outside the space, especially at night. In the U-District, bikes and their unlocked peripherals can get stolen in very short amounts of time.

Feel free to wheel your bike into the foyer during non-trafficked hours, the front door area can support one bike and there's plenty of room to keep a bike up the stairs.

If you don't want to carry your bike up the stairs, U-District station has secure BikeLink lockers that you can activate with a BikeLink card (recommended) or with their app (not all locations available).

By Car

Driving to a park & ride and then taking a train over is still your best bet. The Green Lake Park & Ride at Roosevelt a station away from us, although stations north of Northgate will probably have the best parking.

Parking

Download the PayByPhone app or use the website.

"It's findable but good luck"

"It's kinda bad"

make sure to not park in the police spot. There's also construction happening a lot of the time blocking off space directly in front of the hackerspace.

free street parking is usually about 4-5 blocks west or east. there's also a jack-in-the-box about 2 blocks north with a parking lot that usually has a spot or 2

Alternatively, there's a Safeway at 4732 Brooklyn Ave NE that you could park in.
