Tell Your Cab Driver
Boston cab drivers are accustomed to delivering passengers to the upper-level (Congress Street) entrance to the Seaport World Trade Center. You do NOT want to go there. Tell your cab driver you want to be dropped at the lower-level Seaport Boulevard entrance of the Seaport World Trade Center - not the upper-level entrance. You’ll be glad you did.

In order to avoid parking concerns, we invite you to ride the MBTA Silver Line. This line stops across the street from the Seaport World Trade Center.

Accessibility
Build Boston, the Seaport World Trade Center and the Seaport Hotel are accessible for individuals with disabilities. For information, call 617-385-5049.
