Directions
By car

From I-90 (Massachusetts Turnpike): Get off at Cambridge (exit 18). Turn left immediately onto Soldiers Field Road (west). Take Harvard Square exit, bear right across Anderson Bridge, and drive straight into Harvard Square. You’ll pass Out of Town News on your right, then merge with Massachusetts Avenue. Keep Harvard Yard on your right. Stay to the right at the fork, and go into the underpass. Once you emerge from the tunnel, turn left onto Quincy Street and, after one block, left again onto Kirkland Street. Kirkland ends at the Science Center; turn right onto Oxford Street. Physics buildings Jefferson and Lyman are behind the DEAS McKay Laboratory on your left. Vehicle access is available further along on the left, but the only available public parking is on Oxford Street.

From Logan Airport

By taxi:
The ride to Harvard Square takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic. Typically, the ride from Logan Airport to Harvard Square costs about $35.

By subway:
Take the Silver Line bus from any terminal. At South Station, transfer to the Red Line subway towards Alewife, and get off at Harvard Station. The subway ride from Logan Airport can take 45 to 60 minutes. You will need to buy a CharlieTicket, which costs $2.00. For more information about the subway, such as maps and schedules, refer to the MBTA website.

Once in Harvard Square

Upon exiting the “T“ station, walk into Harvard Yard to the statue of John Harvard; from here take path to your left, exit the yard and veer left, around the Science Center (modern white building). The large red-brick building in front of you is Jefferson Physical Laboratory. Elevator access to both Jefferson and Lyman is through Lyman.
