Directions to 450 Washington Street
By Bicycle: Dorchester Avenue is the most direct route south out of downtown Boston, you can catch it by Fort Point Channel. It is about a 5 mile ride from Broadway to Field’s Corner, where you turn right on Park Street – it’s another 3/4 mile or so, unfortunately part of the route is up a very steep hill. When searching for alternate routes on google, bear in mind Dorchester’s Washington Street starts at Blue Hill Avenue and ends at Adams Street in Lower Mills – there are several other Washington Streets in Boston. Once you arrive you can bring your bike into the one-story building.
