Venue Information

Demand Media
1299 Ocean, 5th floor
Flywheel conference room
Santa Monica, CA

Parking:

Park in one of the SM Public Lots on 2nd -- #4 and #2 are closest to the building. I can provide parking vouchers for those buildings. ( Metered parking on Ocean is also an option, might be in the free evening zone by then?). I DO NOT have vouchers for the underground lot at 1299 -- but then it's only $5 to park there after 6pm.

1299 Ocean

Demand has three locations in Santa Monica. You don't want to go to the 1333 Second St location, which is 2 blocks south. Come to 1299 Ocean. Then entrance is on Arizona between Ocean and Second.

Elevators:

I will have to ferry people up the elevators, I'll be in the lobby from 6:45-7. I'll also leave notice with the security guard so they can follow whatever building-level security protocol they have.

Food & BEvERages:

The pizza has been ordered, the soda fridge is scheduled to be freshly restocked and the beers should be on ice.
