Logistics

  • Google Maps link
  • Nice, convenient location that just happens to be completely impractical: Highway 880 exit to Coleman Ave, in the dirt next to the off-ramp.
    • Easy access by foot, suggest parking on nearby Spring Street.
  • Now taking suggestions for local establishments at which to meet -- Google Earth suggests there's a Quizno's just past Hedding on the southwest side of Coleman?
  • I suggest that we meet at the actual spot as best we can (NOTE: do not cross the freeway illegally!) at 4:00pm, get a few pictures, discuss actual "sit down meet-up" locations and leave by 4:15. In addition, I will bring the makings of a small, make-shift marker for this most infamous of meetups, hopefully to be buried under layers of concrete and discovered eons hence by future archeologists...  :)

Intended attendees

  • I'll certainly be there. Zigdon 20:02, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
  • I'll be there, possibly with one or two others. Closest places I can think of are a cheap sandwich shop and a Mexican restaurant at the corner of Elm and Emory, just a few blocks away, but I've never eaten there. There are also several good restaurants (Pasta Pomodoro, Roxie's New York Pizza, Tee Nee Thai), all located a short distance away on the Alameda at Race Street.
