Walking Directions

From Harvard Square (MBTA Red Line)

Follow JFK Street toward the river (pass Citizens Bank and Z Square Cafe on your left), then cross the river and immediately follow the bike path to the right. Remain on the bike path for one mile, passing through the tunnel under the Eliot Bridge (do not cross the bridge). Our green-roofed kiosk is 200 yards past the bridge on the right. The total distance is about 1.5 miles and takes 25-30 minutes. We are also on the 70, 86, and 66 bus lines.
