Parking

While there is limited on-street parking at parking meters in the area, the meters only allow for a car to be left in a space for 2 hours, after which it must be moved. Meters take credit cards or quarters or can be paid using the Park Boston app.

Since CityLab programming typically lasts more than two hours, we recommend that visitors use the daily parking lots operated by Boston University. The Kenmore Lot, located at 549 Commonwealth Avenue, is one block away from CityLab.
