At 11th St., take a right and walk two blocks. Venue is a red brick building on the corner of 44th Ave and 11th St. (Note: Do not be confused by the fact that there is a 44th Rd., 44th Dr. and 44th Ave., Queen was apparently designed by someone without much of an imagination.)

At 11th St., take a right and walk three blocks. Venue is a red brick building on the corner of 44th Ave and 11th St. (Note: Do not be confused by the fact that there is a 44th Rd., 44th Dr. and 44th Ave., Queen was apparently designed by someone without much of an imagination.)
