Someone asked for better directions, and the original ones were
pretty skimpy anyway. Here's a better try.
Cygnus Support
1937 Landings Drive
Mt. View, CA 94043
There's no phone service there yet.
Take US 101 toward Mt. View. From San Francisco, it's about a
40-minute drive. Get off at the Rengstorff Ave/Amphitheatre Parkway
exit. If you were heading south on 101, you curve around to the
right, cross over the freeway, and get to a stoplight. If you were
heading north on 101, you just come right off the exit to the
stoplight. The light is the intersection of Amphitheatre and
Charleston Rd. Take a right on Charleston; there's a right-turn-only
lane.
Follow Charleston for a short distance. You'll pass the
Metaphor/Kaleida buildings on the right. At a clump of palm trees and
a "Landmark Deli" sign, you can take a right into Landings Drive; this
gets you into the complex from the north. Or you can go slightly
further along Charleston and take the next right, into a driveway with
a big "Landmark" sign in the middle. No matter which way you got into
the complex, follow around it until you are on the side that faces the
freeway. There's a clock tower that rises out of one of the
buildings, to the right (south) of the deli. Enter through the doors
immediately under the clock tower. They'll be open between noon and
1PM at least. (See below if you're late.)
Once inside, take the stairs up, immediately to your right. At the top
of the stairs, turn right past the treetops, and we'll be in 1937 on
your left.
If you are late and the door under the clock tower is locked, you can
go to the deli (which will be around a building and left, as you face
the door), cut between the buildings to the right of the deli, and
into the back lawns between the complex and the farm behind it. Walk
around the buildings until you see a satellite dish in the lawn. Go
up the stairs next to the dish, which are the back stairs into the
Cygnus office space. We'll prop the door (or you can bang on it if we
forget).
Or, you can find the guard who's wandering around the complex, who
knows there's a meeting happening and will let you in. They can be
beeped at 965 5250, though you'll have trouble finding a phone.
Don't forget to eat first, or bring food at noon! I recommend hitting
the burrito place on Rengstorff (La Costen~a) at about 11:45. To get
there, when you get off 101, take Rengstorff (toward the hills) rather
than Amphitheatre (toward the bay). Follow it about ten blocks until
the major intersection at Middlefield Road. La Costen~a is the store
on your left at the corner. You can turn left into the narrow lane
behind the store, which leads to a parking lot, and enter by the front
door, which faces the intersection. To get to the meeting from there,
just retrace your route on Rengstorff, go straight over the freeway,
and turn right at the stoplight onto Charleston; see above.
See you there!
