The perimeter at H.I.T.
Wall is secure 24 hours a day. Each tenant needs a key to get into the
complex and a seperate key for their individual room. In addition, each
room is equipped with it's own alarm system provided that each leaseholder
have a phone line established in conjunction with the alarm. H.I.T. Wall
has paid for the monthly alarm fee for each studio to have the lines run,
but each leaseholder is responsible for establishing their own, unique
phone number. Once you become a tenant, we will provide you with more
details as how to establish your alarm system.

The area of town is zoned
"industrial" and considered very safe.
|
|
7. Do I have to give a security deposit?
How much?

agreement?

Each room will have one
leaseholder who will sign a "month-to-month" agreement.

13. How do I get to H.I.T.
Wall?
|
|
FROM SF (101): If you are coming south from San Francisco, you take 101 south, get off on Grand Avenue. Make a left at the light onto Airport Blvd. and then go two blocks and make a right on Baden. Go up to the next stop light and make a left onto South Linden Ave. Go down about 5 or 6 blocks and 120 South Linden Ave. is on the right hand side. You'll see a big flag pole out in front which will soon lift a flag to proclaim the existence of the first rehearsal space to open in the Bay Area since the demise of Downtown rehearsal. H.I.T. Wall Studios. |
|
FROM SAN MATEO (101):
If you are coming north on 101, take the Grand Avenue exit in South San
Francisco and go west, into the ocean. Just kidding. Go west, across the
freeway on Grand Avenue. At the stop light, make a left onto Airport Blvd.
and then a quick right onto Baden. See above for the exciting conclusion.
|
|
FROM 280:
If you are coming from 280 north or south, take the 380 interchange by
Tanforan Shopping Center, go north on 101. See above for the exciting
conclusion.
|
|
14. Will there be an elevator for tenants
on the second floor?
|
|
An elevator would cost
about a half million dollars. So, no. We're talking 13 steps to get to
the second floor, not a big deal.
