Just head down Randall's lane and take the turn at Carl's. You'll see it right past the old park.

*Randall hasn't lived there in thirty years and the civic name of the road is Oak Line. "Carl's" was bought out by a major chain back in 1998 and hasn't been called that in two decades, also you can turn in two directions at the intersection just past it (obviously you don't want to turn left at Carl's, there's nothing down that way). Oh, and the "old park" was actually closed down in the 80s and there's a warehouse in that lot now.
