If you hit NW mercer Fwy, you’ve gone too far. Just take the Yesler Skyway, and get off at SE Lou Graham Way.

About two blocks east of Broadway, on the left side of Olive Way; when Half Priced Books was there, the exterior of the building blended into the back ground.
It wasn’t easy to find as you’d think especially since it was less than one block from Olive.
