Directions to Oxford Street Garage

From Points North, South and the Downtown Boston Area:
Take either Storrow Drive or Memorial Drive West (Towards Cambridge/Newton). Exit right at the Harvard Square/Cambridge signed exit onto JFK Street. If you are on Storrow Drive you will be crossing the Anderson Bridge, which spans the Charles River, before you reach JFK Street. If you are traveling on Memorial Drive, you will turn directly onto JFK Street.

From Points West:
Take either Storrow Drive or Memorial Drive East (towards Downtown Boston). If you are on Storrow Drive, you must exit right at the Harvard Square/Allston exit, and then take your first left, crossing the Anderson Bridge which spans the Charles River, before you reach JFK Street. If you are on Memorial Drive, exit left at the Harvard Square/Cambridge signed exit onto JFK Street.

Once on JFK Street, travel through three (3) sets of lights (not including the set at the intersection of Memorial Drive and JFK Street). You should pass the Harvard Coop and Nini's Corner Newspaper Stand on your left, and on your right you will see the Harvard Square Out of Town Ticket/Newspaper Stand (the "Kiosk"). At the next set of lights (which are located directly in front of the Johnston Gate, which is the main entrance to Harvard Yard), bear to the left. At the next set of lights proceed to the right. This will put you onto Massachusetts Ave.

The entrance to the garage is located at the intersection of Everett St. and Oxford St. So, make a right turn onto Everett Street from Massachusetts Ave. Travel straight on Everett Street, through the traffic light at the intersection of Everett St. and Oxford St.

There is a lot of construction in the area, so please give yourself time to find the garage and make it to the performance on time.
