Handicapped parking

There are city-designated handicapped parking spaces near NEC. Because of the large number of music and theater presentations in the area, these spaces may not be available to NEC patrons. During construction projects, some of these spaces may move or become temporarily unavailable.

• Two spaces next to the entrance to NEC's Jordan Hall building at 290 Huntington Avenue
• Two spaces on Huntington Avenue outside the Cohen entrance to Symphony Hall
• One space on St. Stephen Street next to the backstage entrance to Symphony Hall
