written directions
Parking:
Please come to campus through the main entrance. Once you pass the booth on your left (it will be unattended) take the immediate left. You will see a Boston College shuttle stop on the left and the East Wing (a brick building) on the right. We have 3 parking spaces designated for LAB clients that will be on your right. If you arrive at Keyes Hall, you have gone too far.
Public Transportation:
If you are taking public transportation, there are 2 options on the MBTA's Green Line: the B train or the D train.
If you are taking the Red Line, the Orange Line, the Blue Line, or the Silver Line you will need to switch over to the Green Line. All of the Boston College campuses are located on the Green Line.
1. The B train ends at the Boston College T stop on Commonwealth Avenue. It will be the last stop, no more passengers after this. Once you get off the train, you will see the St. Ignatius Church directly across the street. The church is on the corner of Fr. Herilihy Drive and Commonwealth Avenue. Stay on Commonwealth Avenue and walk uphill. The Boston College T stop should now be on your right as you walk uphill. You will pass the Boston College Career Center and some dormitories on your left. The BC shuttle stop is at the Main Gate of the Chestnut Hill Campus. Wait there until the Newton Campus shuttle bus comes along; do not take the shuttle that says "Commonwealth Avenue". The Newton Campus shuttle will go directly to the Law School. The shuttle bus drivers usually drop their passengers off at Stuart House near the back of the building.
**IMPORTANT**If you decide to take the B line, give yourself extra time. This particular line has many stops along the way.
2. If you take the D train to the Newton Centre T stop you could walk to the Law School (weather permitting). We are located at 885 Centre Street in Stuart House, Room 302. It is a 15 to 20 minute walk. After you get off the train, walk up the steps where you will see several shops directly across from you. Cross the street and you will be on Herrick Road. Keep going and you will see a busy intersection. You will see the First Baptist Church in Newton on one corner and Liberty Travel on the other. Press any button for the walk signal so that you can quickly cross over to Centre Street. Make a right on Centre Street. Here are a few landmarks: On your left will be a Starbucks, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, the CVS Pharmacy, the Tango Mango Restaurant, the Newton Centre Playground, the Greek Evangelical Church, and the Trinity Episcopal Church. On your right will be a Brookline Bank, a Citizens Bank, a Common area with benches and the Dellaria Day Spa. You will come to the intersection of Commonwealth Avenue and Centre Street. Continue on Centre Street, through the residential area. You will see a stone wall and the entrance to the Law School on your left.
