Directions to O2660 (SURGE Innovation) in the LSC Ocean Science Department:

• From the main entrance of the LSC: Go down the stairs on the right and continue past the Tim Hortons, with the Tims on your right, until you see doors leading outside on your right. Go through them and enter the building directly across. Continue straight down the hallway until you see the bathrooms on your left, or the SURGE A-frame sign - then it’s the doors on your right!
• Option 2 from the main entrance of the LSC: Go down the stairs on the right and continue past the Tim Hortons, with the Tims on your left, towards the aquatron windows. Follow the ocean mural to the large metal blue door. Go through it and turn right, follow the hall towards the Ocean Science Building. The entrance to SURGE is the door to the left before the second blue door that would take you into the atrium of the Ocean Science Building.
• For wheelchair access to SURGE: start at Wickwire Field and walk beside the Life Sciences Centre (LSC) toward Oxford Street, passing between the LSC and Shirreff Hall. After the playground, LSC courtyard, and bike locks on your right, you’ll see the ramp just beyond the bike locks.
