Location
Oversee.net has offered some great perks for this meet-up. First of all, they are providing access to their 44th floor dining and training rooms, which includes wifi access and projection screens. You’ll be impressed with the scenic views of the mountains and downtown LA. They will also be providing snacks, beer and soft drinks and they even have a pool table, ping pong table and wii available for some added fun. They are located at 515 S. Flower St. on the 44th floor of the Paul Hastings Tower at City National Plaza in Downtown Los Angeles.

• You must bring a valid I.D. to check-in with the building security.

Parking
You’ll be happy to hear that Oversee.net is providing validation for parking at the LA Central Library parking garage at 524 S Flower Street lot across the street for the first 45 attendees to arrive and check-in (first come, first served); it’s literally across the street from the office building. The rate after 4pm is $8 without validation. Also, here is a map of the meters and free spots after 6/7/8pm (please check all signs) - http://g.co/maps/873az
*Note: Do Not Park in the City National Parking parking structure downstairs at 500 S. Flower St. There is no validation provided there and per hour is more expensive than parking at the Library.
