Parking
There is metered parking on both Brookline Avenue and Overland Street - cars will be ticketed so you must feed the parking meters.

Just past our building (heading away from Fenway Park/Kenmore Square, still on Brookline Avenue), turn left into the alley between 120 Brookline Avenue and the Boston Billiard Club to the parking lot marked with a blue "P".
