Directions:

Driving directions: because of limited, expensive parking and constant changes with the Big Dig, we highly recommend public transportation. Orange or Red line: Take the T to the Downtown Crossing stop. Exit onto Summer Street. Place yourself so Macy*s is on your right and Filene's is on your left. Walk down Summer Street two and ½ blocks to # 80. If the door is locked (after hours and on weekends) press the buzzer to the left and we'll be able to see you on the video screen to let you in. We're on the 3rd floor. You can use the elevator or walk up two flights of stairs. Green line: Take the T to the Park Street stop. Exit onto Tremont Street and cross over to Winter. One block down, Winter becomes Summer Street. Follow above directions from there. Blue line: Take the T to the State Street stop. Exit onto Washington Street. Walk past Filene's on your left and turn left onto Summer Street. From this point, follow above directions.   Nearest Metro/Subway Stop: Downtown Crossing,   Walk distance (in minutes): 3 - 5   Nearest Bus Stop: Otis and Summer Street, 3 minute walk For maps or information, please see http://www.mbta.com
