By Car
Emerson does not have parking facilities and street parking is extremely limited. We recommend that you head to one of several nearby parking garages before making the short walk to the Admission Visitor Center. The Boston Common Parking Garage is located at Zero Charles Street and the Motor Mart and Radisson Hotel Parking Garages are located at 201 and 200 Stuart Street.

From I-95, US 1, or Route 3
Follow signs to Boston via Interstate 93. Take Exit 26 (Storrow Drive/Cambridge) and proceed to the Copley/Back Bay exit (on the left). At the end of the exit ramp, turn left at the traffic signal onto Beacon Street then a quick right onto Arlington Street. Follow Arlington Street alongside the Boston Public Garden to the fifth traffic light and turn left onto Stuart Street (see below*).

From I-90 (Massachusetts Turnpike)
Take Exit 22‹Prudential/Copley Square. Stay in the right lane for Copley Square (it comes up quickly!) and go straight onto Stuart Street when you come above ground (see below*).

*On Stuart Street you will pass the Motor Mart and Radisson Hotel Parking Garages. If you choose to continue or find these garages full, turn left at the next traffic light onto Charles Street. You will pass the Massachusetts Transportation Building and Boston Common Parking Garages on the right. We recommend you park at one of these facilities and walk to the campus and Admission Visitor Center (see above).

Taxicabs
Taxis are usually the easiest way to get around town and are much less expensive than renting a car. From the airport to the Emerson campus, the fare will be about $20 including tip. Around town, taxis run about $5-10 for short trips.
