We are located in the Highland Landmark III building, ½ mile north of Good Samaritan Hospital, and just south of highway 88 on the northeast corner of the intersection of Highland Avenue and 31^st Street.  We are in the tall “green” building with “SAP” written on the top.  From Highland Avenue, the parking garage is labeled with “New York Life.” Mapquest.com will also provide clear directions, except for the final approach, which is better used from below.  Instructions from various locations in the metro area follow.

From the Northwest:  355 South to 88 East.  Stay in the right lane and take the first exit (Highland Avenue).  Turn right at the top of the ramp and move immediately to the far left lane so that you can turn left (east) at the first light  (31^st Street).  Then follow the final common approach in bold italics below.*

From the Northeast:  294 South to 88 West.  Go approximately 4 miles and take the Highland Avenue exit.  At the top of the ramp, turn left (south).  Turn left (east) again at the second light you encounter (31^st Street). Then follow the final common approach inbold italics below.*

From the West:  88 East to Highland Avenue exit. Turn right at the top of the ramp onto Highland southbound, and move immediately to the far left lane so that you can turn left (east) at the first light  (31^st Street).  Then follow the final common approach inbold italics below.*

From the East: 290 (Eisenhower Expressway) West to 88 West.  Just past Oakbrook, take the Highland Avenue exit and turn left (south) onto Highland Avenue at the top of the ramp.  Turn left again (east) at the second light you encounter (31^st Street). Then follow the final common approach in bold italics below.*

From the South: I-55 to 355 North.  Merge onto 88 East.  Exit a few hundred yards later to Highland Avenue. Turn right at the top of the ramp and move immediately to the far left lane so that you can turn left (east) at the first light  (31^st Street).  Then follow the final common approach in bold italics below.*

*FINAL COMMON APPROACH:  From the intersection of Highland Avenue and 31^st Street, turn east on 31^st.  Move immediately into the left lane, to be ready to turn left (north) onto Highland Parkway.  This is the first possible turn-in on the north side of 31^st, just a few hundred yards east of Highland Avenue.  Look for the masonry signs at the entrance to Highland Parkway which say HIGHLAND LANDMARK.  Once on this first leg of Highland Parkway, going north, take your first possible left turn at the end of the tree median, again only a hundred feet or so, drive along the back of the building, and enter the parking garage. If you miss the first left, you will take the second left which takes you instead in  front of the building and then into the parking garage. Try to park on level 2 or above, where the garage elevator is easier to find.  Much of the time,  it may be most efficient to drive up to the 4^th level or higher.  Use the garage elevator to come to level 2, which is the only level where garage and building are attached.  Walk down the hallway and into the building lobby.  Take the  buildingelevator  to Suite 550, on the fifth floor.  *Note:  If you overshoot the first leg of Highland Parkway, you will see a traffic light a few hundred yards further east.  This is the second leg of Highland Parkway, also so labeled.  If you turn north there, follow the circle to the left almost all of the way to 31^stto find our building.
