NYS Thruway (I87) to exit 24 - this is a left hand lane exit ramp.
Bear right into the toll booths - exit the toll booths bearing hard to the right - look for ramp for I87 North (will say Saratoga or Montreal or Airport I forget which) but definitely I87 North.
I87 North to exit 9.
Bear right at exit 9 onto Route 146 East - there will be signs before the exit saying "Mechanicville 6"
Proceed 3 miles or so and you come to a "T" intersection.
Turn left at "T" - there is a large car dealership facing you before you turn.
Proceed 2 or 3 miles - road goes steeply downhill - get into and stay in left lane.
Road swings to the left and becomes Central Ave in Mechanicville.
Third light on Central Avenue is Hill St - there is an XtraMart convenience / gas on the right and an Eckerds Drugs in the plaza to your left.
Warehouse sits on Hill & Hudson -look to your right as you approach the light. There is a sign facing the street, on the corner of the building, that says "Smith Industries".
Turn right on Hill - IMMEDIATELY (perhaps 50') take left on Hudson and park on the street - it is OK to park in front of the loading dock door. DO NOT PARK in lot to left of the warehouse (Ponzi's Hair Salon and Micklas Jewelers) - the owner is a true piece of work and will have you towed for the sheer pleasure of it.
There is a loading dock door facing Hudson - this is our only entrance. Climb into dock - small steel door to right is where you want to be. Come on in – bang hard if it is locked. PLEASE do NOT go into the office or factory doors of Smith Industries - my landlady is adamant about people not wandering around in her facility.
