[ A shitload of stairs is right.

There's a lot to the building Ian gave him the coordinates for, like he knew Nate would prefer to puzzle it out the conventional way, without using the built-in GPS that jumps into his internal HUD like spam mail every time he so much as thinks about a specific location with any real intent. It's like a coppery wave stuffed inside the London gherkin, if the latter were lying on its side in the middle of the city. All sprawling glass geometric shapes and metal casing, floating staircases, architectural ripples illuminated with the sulfurous gleam of yellow and orange lights.

Trying to draw on date nights he remembers Nate picked out a nice pair of jeans, comfortable boots, and a shirt explicitly chosen to avoid any of that pesky glowing, if contact slipped in that direction. Lurking by the edge of the entrance he might almost look inconspicuous, if not for the recognizable face.

Thankfully it seems as though there's a distinct lack of foot traffic in this area, which he'll attribute to thoughtfulness regardless of whether Ian aimed for that on purpose.
