We will be at the Microsoft facility at 1 Cambridge Center, which is next door to the Marriott Hotel in Kendall Square. (Click here for a map.)
PARKING
There is a garage next door with entrances off of both Broadway and Ames Street. It’s not the least expensive parking in the world, but the cost is in line with other metropolitan garages, and it is quite convenient.
