half a block to Lakeside, cross Ninth Street to your left, cross 
Lakeside,
and half a block further on is the Ninth Street Entrance to the

If the weather's nice, you can also walk from Tower City across 
Public
Square away from the Terminal Tower building you came out of (the
building in which the RTA Rapid lets you off) and toward the BP
Building. Walk east (that is, turn right just past the BP building) 
on any of Superior, Rockwell, or St Clair streets, to East Ninth. 
Turn left. From St Clair, it's right there; from Rockwell, one block, 

from Superior two blocks, to the entrance at East Ninth and St Clair.
