Directions
Public Transportation
From Airport:
Driving Directions to Sloan:
- Subway | By train, take the Red Line to the Kendall/MIT Station. Once above ground (you will be on Main Street), head toward Boston, past the nearby construction on the corner of Wadsworth Street. Walk past the construction and a tall concrete residence to the entrance of E52, to your left a curved building with a green space and pine tree/chain link sculpture in front.
- Bus | The CT2 (Cross Town) stops at the Kendall Square T Station, as well as on the corner of Massachusetts Avenue and Vassar St., near the main MIT entrance. The #1 or Dudley/Harvard Station bus stops at the main MIT entrance on Massachusetts Avenue and provides transportation to Central Square and Harvard Square.
From Airport:
- Taxi | Taxi fare from the airport is about $20-$25. During non-rush hour, the taxi ride will take about 15 minutes. During rush hour, the ride could take 30 minutes, with a higher fare.
- By Subway | From any terminal at Logan take the Silver Line SL1 train to South Station and transfer to the Red Line train heading north to Alewife. Disembark from the train at the Kendall/MIT Station. The average time of trip is approximately 45 or less minutes.
Driving Directions to Sloan:
- Recommend using your GPS and putting in the address “50 Memorial Drive, Cambridge MA” (there is construction around Sloan and the GPS often has the most updated path).
