+ <h2>Visit Us</h2>
+
+ <p><em>Extraordinary Least Squares</em> is located at the
+ heart of
+ central <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fremont,_Seattle">Fremont</a>
+ at the following address:</p>
+
+ <blockquote>920 N 34<sup>th</sup> Street, Apt 16<br />
+ Seattle, WA 98103</blockquote>
+
+ <p>When visiting us, please <strong>enter through the building's
+ back door</strong> which you can find in <strong>an alley between
+ 34<sup>th</sup> and 35<sup>th</sup> streets</strong> which one can
+ reach from either Troll Ave or Albion. You'll see a garage door
+ with large metal bars and a small door to the left (pictured
+ below). Call us when you are outside this door and we will let you
+ in.</p>

+
+ <h2>Airport Directions</h2>
+
+ <p>A taxi from SeaTac airport to <strong>Extraordinary Least
+ Squares</strong> should cost $50-60 (with tip) and take about 30
+ minutes — but might take <em>much</em> more with traffic. Mass
+ transit requires one transfer, costs $2.75, and take about an
+ hour.</p>
+
+ <h3>Mass Transit Directions</h3>
+
+ <p>At SeaTac airport, follow signs to ground transportation
+ and to
+ the <a href="http://www.soundtransit.org/rider-guide/link-light-rail">LINK
+ light rail</a> which is located at the far left of the main
+ terminal on the check-in level. At the light rail station,
+ you can buy tickets
+ and <a href="http://www.orcacard.com">ORCA cards</a> which
+ are reusable on all Seattle-area mass transit. You can also
+ buy a single-use paper ticket. If you buy an ORCA card, you
+ will need to tap it on a yellow terminal both before you
+ enter, and after you exit the train. The terminal at the airport station
+ is before the ticket machines, so you will need to backtrack slightly
+ to tap your card if you buy it at the airport.</p>
+
+ <p>Take the LINK train until the <strong>University
+ Street</strong> station which take 36 minutes and stop at 11
+ stops. At University Street, you will need to change to a bus to
+ Fremont. Note there is <strong>no cellular network</strong> in the
+ University Street station, so you may want to get a copy of these
+ directions before you arrive there.</p>
+
+ <p>The LINK station is underground and the buses to Fremont
+ travel on the street above. In the station, walk in the
+ direction of the train and go up the stairs to the north
+ platform. Follow signs for an exit onto 3<sup>rd</sup>
+ Avenue and University which should be to the left if you are
+ facing the direction of the train Avenue. You should exit
+ onto the east side of 3<sup>rd</sup> Avenue, walk north
+ (again, the same direction of the train)
+ to <strong>3<sup>rd</sup> Avenue and Union Street</strong>
+ (one block up) and look for a large bus stop with several
+ shelters with the following buses numbers written on
+ it: <strong>40, 26, 28</strong>. These buses all come down
+ 3<sup>rd</sup> Avenue frequently and should arrive within
+ 10-15 minutes at almost any time except between midnight and
+ 5:00am. You can install the free software phone application
+ or view the website
+ for <a href="http://pugetsound.onebusaway.org/">OneBusAway</a>
+ for real-time data on bus arrivals.</p>
+
+ <p>Take any <strong>40, 26, or 28</strong> bus <strong>North
+ to Fremont</strong>. Tapping your ORCA card at bus entrance
+ will register a "transfer" from the LINK and you will not be
+ charged for the bus. Stay on the bus for about 20 minutes to
+ the stop at <strong>FREMONT AVE and N 34TH ST</strong> which
+ will be displayed on a digital display on the ceiling at the
+ front of the bus.</p>
+
+ <p>Take a right after immediately exiting the bus and take a
+ left when you come to the intersection (Fremont Ave &
+ 34<sup>th</sup>). Walk down 34<sup>th</sup> (you should pass
+ <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waiting_for_the_Interurban">this
+ sculpture of people waiting, usually dressed up</a>, on the
+ other side of the street) as you walk toward, and then under, the
+ enormous "Aurora" bridge and across Troll
+ Avenue. <strong>Extraordinary Least Squares</strong> is in a
+ building called <strong>St. James Tower</strong> on the
+ left. </p>
+
+ <p>The best way to get to our apartment is through the
+ apartment's back door which means you will take a left on
+ Troll Ave (up the hill) and then a right down the first
+ alley you come to. You can follow the directions under
+ "Visit Us" above. Call one of the proprietors when you have
+ arrived outside.</p>
+
+ <h2>Parking</h2>
+
+ <p>Street parking is available around our building but be
+ sure to read signs closely because our guests have been
+ ticketed. The closest free street parking is on Troll
+ Ave. It is two hour parking during the day but is
+ unrestricted overnight and on Sundays. Parking on
+ 35<sup>th</sup> is generally free except between 8pm and
+ 12am and the signs can be hard to see. There are two
+ self-serve pay lots on either side of the building in the
+ alley between 34<sup>th</sup> and 35<sup>th</sup> but read
+ the signs carefully before you park because some of the
+ space is shared with businesses during the week. If you
+ contact us well in advance, we might be able to get
+ permission to use an unused spot within our building from
+ the building manager.</p>
