Metro Seattle Gamers is located in the Salmon Bay area of Seattle in the office building over the main pier of the Nickerson Marina. The marina is located on the south side of the Lake Washington Ship Canal and abuts the South Ship Canal Trail. We are about 1/3rd of a mile east of the Ballard Bridge and one block north of West Nickerson Street.  

• From West Nickerson Street: turn north onto 11th Avenue West (an alley-like street just east of a well-marked crosswalk) and go one block, crossing the South Ship Canal Trail to enter the Nickerson Marina parking lot. Coming from the west, the left turn from Nickerson to 11th Avenue is tight due to the crosswalk barrier; drivers might prefer the alternate route. 
• Alternate route (selectable on the map above): take West Nickerson Street to 6th Avenue West, go north one block on 6th Avenue West and turn left (west) onto West Ewing Street. Go west on West Ewing Street (a mostly unpaved street) past the Foss Shipyard to its end and turn right, crossing the South Ship Canal Trail, to enter the Nickerson Marina parking lot. 
• From Southbound 15th Ave West (selectable on the map above): take the first exit at the south end of the Ballard Bridge to West Emerson Street and then immediately turn left to go eastbound over the Nickerson Street Overpass (crossing back over 15th Ave West). On the overpass exit ramp, stay right to continue moving east on West Nickerson Street. Turn north onto 11th Avenue West (an alley-like street just east of a well-marked crosswalk) and go one block, crossing the South Ship Canal Trail to enter the Nickerson Marina parking lot.  The left turn from Nickerson to 11th Avenue is tight due to the crosswalk barrier; drivers might prefer to go onto the alternate route left turn onto 6th Avenue West instead (see above).
