Driving Instructions: From the South, North, or East

From SeaTac International Airport:

Exit the airport to the North, following signs to Seattle. The airport access roads will lead you to state route 518, which you take in an easterly (right) direction. Soon after joining route 518 move to the Left lane, since the Seattle-bound exit to Interstate 5 North is a left-exit from route 518.


After joining Interstate 5 northbound, you will proceed north about 18 miles. You will pass through the center of Seattle. Take the exit signed for Bellevue and Route 520. This is just before a high bridge crossing a waterway.
Take the first exit (Montlake). Othewise you will go all the way across Lake Washington.
At the traffic light at the end of the exit ramp, turn left.
Pass over a drawbridge, and go straight, avoiding the fork to the left.
Continue straight at the next fork, avoiding the right branch.
You are on 25th Ave NE. Turn left at the traffic light just before the viaduct crosses 25 Ave NE.
This left will bring you onto campus at the NE corner. Proceed up the hill, go right immediately after the gate-house, and stay right.
You will end up in parking lot N-12. The laboratory is at the far end of the lot.

 

From the East:

Cross Lake Washington on I-90, you will join I-5 South of downtown Seattle. Go north, and follow the instructions for arrival from the airport after I-5.

Or, cross Lake Washington on 520, exit at the exit for University of Washington, Montlake Avenue, and follow the instructions for arrival from the airport after Route 520.

From the North:

Exit I-5 at N.E. 50th St, go East to 17th Ave N.E. Turn Right on 17th N.E. which will bring you to the North entrance to the campus. After the gate house, turn left, follow that road around about 90 degrees of curve, and turn left on Pend Oreille Rd, which goes down a steep hill. At the stop sign half way down the hill, turn left, then keep right into parking lot N-12. The laboratory is at the far end of the lot.


General information:

If you get lost, our telephone number is 543-4080 during business hours, or 543-4062 after hours.

Most Seattle streets are numbered, with Streets running east/west, and Avenues running north/south. Numbers start in the center of the city, and have compass octants attached.
Streets have the compass octant before the number (NE 45th Street), Avenues have the compass octant after the number (25th Ave NE).
