Parking (again) sorry!!!!

Can anyone suggest any covered or enclosed parking on the T coming from the west. We will be coming in on I-90 and will be staying with our daughter near Fenway (unfortunately the Sox are in town so parking there will not work). We are thinking that may just taking the T would be the best bet but concerned about parking.





Thanks~!!!

It%26#39;s not covered, but the logical choice is at the Riverside MBTA station. It%26#39;s just off I-90, and you can catch the trolley directly to Fenway or Kenmore (about a 25-minute ride).



Parking (again) sorry!!!!


If you are staying overnight, you might want to consider one of the commuter lots, like the Alewife station in Cambridge. For a day trip, even with a Red Sox game, you can probably come a little closer in to Boston on the green line, like the Cleveland Circle or Washington Square areas in Brookline.




The Riverside MBTA (last station on the Green Line D) is just off I-90/Rt 128. That would be the most convenient. Plus the Green Line D stops right at Fenway station, so it would make the most sense for you.





The Riverside lot has over 1000 spaces, but it does fill up during the week in the morning, but not an issue if you come on a weekend. Also, it is an open lot, not an enclosed garage.





The parking fee is ~$8/night, plus $6 for the first day. So the first 24 hours is $14, but then $8/24hr thereafter (that%26#39;s approximate rate, but not off by much).





The next stop from Riverside is Woodland Station and it has a garage which is what you are looking for. It is 25cents more expensive than Riverside. While it is smaller in size, I get the impression that it doesn%26#39;t fill up like Riverside does. So if you drive to Riverside and it%26#39;s full, you can always try the Woodland Garage. Again, they allow overnight parking (a tad more expensive than Riverside).
