If you are driving:

From the WEST (I-90) or NORTH (93 South)

Take the Mass Pike (Rt 90) east to Rt 93 South. Take 93 S and get off at exit 15 (Columbia Road Exit). Keep right at the fork in the ramp and merge onto Columbia Road. At the first set of lights, you will cross Dorchester Ave. At the next set of lights, continue straight through, but get into the left lane. At the third set of lights near the Store 24, turn left, following the green arrow, to continue on Columbia Road as it bears left. Get in the middle lane, and pass through one set of lights. At the next set of lights, you are in Upham's Corner, and you will continue straight through. You'll go straight through two more sets of lights after the Upham's Corner intersection, and at the third light, you'll take a left onto Quincy Street. Follow Quincy to the end. At the lights, take a right onto Bowdoin Street. 200 Bowdoin is several blocks up on the right, on the corner of Bowdoin and Olney Streets. Guests are welcome to park on the street (check signs for street cleaning times).

From the SOUTH

Take 93 North, to Exit 9, North Quincy/ Adams Street/ East Milton Square exit. At the end of the exit, bear left (the only direction you can go) and stay on this road until the 2nd traffic light. Go left at the second traffic light and go over the Expressway, then bear right and follow this little road to Adams Street. Follow Adams St. for about 1 mile (up and down a hill) into Lower Mills. At the traffic light and major intersection, go straight across and this becomes Dorchester Ave. Follow Dorchester Ave for about 2 miles until you arrive in Fields Corner. (Landmarks for Fields Corner = Dunkin' Donuts on right, a park on the left & a shopping plaza). At the light at the park and shopping plaza, take a left onto Geneva Ave. At the first light, take a right (this is still Geneva Avenue). Follow Geneva Ave to the first light and take a right onto Bowdoin St. We are located about 250 yds up on the left in the brick building on the corner of Bowdoin and Olney Streets.
