Seattle driving helpy needed

[rockrighter]

Hi.

So my brilliant plan has me parking behind the Bus Depot and walking the 2-3 blocks to The Paramount - Nancy and I did that for the NW School Benefit and it worked out fine (even saved a couple of bucks), save for not knowing that 9th was a 1-way street and turning against it after the gig. Whoopsie. Anyhoo, Yahoo/Google Maps is telling me to get to Olive Way in an impossible fashion ('cause they're using the Bus Depot address as a starting point, where the entrance/egress is for the lot is on 9th). They're telling me to go back to Stewart, toward 8th, and then left down 7th, but I can't as both Howell and 9th won't allow for me to get back to Stewart nor 8th, respectively.

Anyhoo, that was the fun story time. What I need to know is whether or not I can take 9th down to take a left onto Olive Way. It looks as if I can, but there's a screwy looking intersection as 9th splits off into the same road the Paramount is on - so I thought I'd ask. It looks like 1 part is Bus Only and the other part is a feeder onto Olive?

Helpy, please. :)

that was perhaps the most confusing thing i have ever read.

personally, i would park in pacific place garage(between 6th and 7th; between olive and pine). it is way inexpensive (like 3 or 4 bucks) and it is only a couple of blocks from the paramount. if you do, use the 6th ave exit and turn right onto olive.

you should be able to turn left on olive off of 9th after you cross over howell.

Didn't know it existed. Sweet. Ooooh, shopping spree at Nordstroms!
(shyeaaaaahhhh)

Looks like it'll cost about $6. That's groovy.

I see ... Olive ends where it meets Howell. Okee.

Thank you very much, Shaley. :)

Trophy!

no prob. i occasionally pick up shifts driving the hotel shuttle van, so i am pretty good with downtown directions.

I haven't left yet, but will be in about 10 minutes or so. So ... you have 10 minutes! Hee hee.

Edit: Too late! Maybe in future times. :)
