Because 3rd Place Commons sits atop the Lake Forest Park branch of the King County Library System that offers free wireless Internet service to those in the Commons. (But I might suggest also bringing a power strip if you want to share electrical "power" for your laptop with others, as the available wall sockets are relatively few.)<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('70559','S.
