"Missing Droid X Real-World Give-Away" Contest (1st Post:Updated)

ok i will look at the plot again but can someone double check the lab address? i cannot pull a WEST Lombard ST?
 
True. This is less about coords at this point and more about leaving no stone unturned though.

If you use google navigation and just put in Lombard St. as the destination it takes you to the intersection of Lombard and Hyde St. Just a hunch.... I mean who really knows anything at this point. Good luck Mahers!!

Thats because thats the entrance to the windy part of Lombard st. (the famously known 'most crookiest street in America'), so its a tourist spot. And honestly, today is probably one of the worst days to go to that location to look for something because it is PACKED on regular non-holidays. I can't imagine how insanely crowded it will be today on a holiday (I've been a few times on non-holidays where you literally have 80 cars lining up from the 3 different street entrances at that intersection going into this one street)

Might have a good one here:

West Coast Biologicals
600 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA
94103-4945(415) 503-4010‎

They do biotechnology and cybernetics. Remember the old post for #3?

-Droid X designate #3 is near the west coast. Droid hunters are advised to start looking at the shoreline and work inland.

I've never heard of it either (I go to school right across the Bay), and I can't even find the lab that was mentioned in Google. Maybe I'm getting slapped around by the fail whale, but it doesn't look like it exists. :p
 
Mahers, you try the Palace of Fine Arts area? Its close to the non-windy part of Lombard, and not as tourist-y.

mahers, I can't find a good address for the cybernetics lab. Supposedly it is a division of the Art Institute, which is here:

San Francisco Art Institute
800 Chestnut St
San Francisco, California 94133

Right on! I'm a few years after you. Try the Palace of Fine Arts (alot of neat architecture, would be easy to hide something) or even Ghiridelli (sp?) Square.
 
Wow. sounds nuts. Oh well. When I search on my PC and not my droid it gives me two locations for Lombard St. The first being marked as "A" which I previously mentioned, then the second marked with just a green arrow at the intersection of Lombard and Gough St. Again just another hunch.

Close to Lombard, I'd say its worth a try, as I'm pretty sure that San Francisco University location does not exist (there is no school in SF called San Francisco University). There ARE labs at both UCSF and USF though, but those are a bit out the way.
