It is most convenient for the observer arriving at the Tucson Airport to take the airport limousine to the NRAO office. The limousine, called the ``Arizona Stagecoach,'' departs from a stand located near the lower level exits of the main terminal building. The limousine driver will know the location of Steward Observatory on the University of Arizona campus (949 North Cherry Avenue) and the Kitt Peak National Observatory (950 North Cherry Avenue). Figures 1 and 2 show the route from the airport to the NRAO and NOAO offices and the street map in the vicinity of the NRAO offices. The NRAO offices are located on the 5th floor of the Steward Observatory building directly across Cherry Avenue from the National Optical Astronomy Observatory office and KPNO. Should you arrive after business hours (07:30-16:00) or on a weekend or holiday, you must obtain GSA car keys from the guard at the KPNO building. The guard can be summoned by a phone located to the right of the front entrance.
