The rented parking spaces are located outside and nearby their pavilion/gym. We have arranged for shuttles to/from the parking lot to the Google campus. Watch out for gold colored shuttles.
Shuttles will be looping between Google and Northwest University from 8:45-10:45 AM and again from 6:30-7:30 PM
If you need to get to/from the lot during non-shuttle hours, you can either walk (0.8 mile, ~15 minutes) or take a bus route that runs every 15 mins along 6th St.
If you arrive at the overflow lot and it is full, we have two more nearby options:
- We have received permission to use the 50 spaces at Kirkland Seventh Day Adventist parking lot on the SOUTH SIDE ONLY, approximately 2 blocks away from the Kirkland Google office. We’ll have the morning and evening shuttles stop there as well.
- We have also received permission from the city to park cars at the public parking lot at Everest Park (2 blocks from Google Kirkland), which has roughly 150 spaces as well. From there, please walk to Google Kirkland. Pack your umbrella -- it may be raining.
