Directions to BSA Building, Map Link

Broad Street is one block west (up State Street) of the Custom House Tower on
Boston's waterfront. From the corner of State and Broad Streets, 52 Broad St.
is one block south on the left side, on the corner of Milk and Broad. Parking
is available on the street (theoretically). There are some nearby street lots
and the nearest parking garage is located immediately in front of the New
England Aquarium across the Southeast Expressway. Anticipate traffic delays
due to the Big Dig. Best bet is take the "T" in to State Street or Aquarium stop.
