Re: [Plug] Directions to Meeting

[Son To <son@wharton.upenn.edu>]

if you get off of 30th street station, you can take the greenline to 36th
and Sansom. All greenline routes, except the 10, will take you to 36th
and Sansom. When you get off the greenline, you will see XandO, Urban
Outfitters, and the bookstore. The bookstore is located at the corner of
36th and Walnut. Cross walnut to get to locust. Steinberg-Detrich is
between 36th and 37th locust.

if you get off of University City, you will have to walk 3 blocks instead
of one.
