32nd Annual Brass Rat Regatta

Frequently Asked Questions

PARKING (Note: Boston 10K for Women run on Memorial Drive Saturday morning 9am - about 1pm.)

Parking tends to be limited around MIT and the Sailing Pavilion, so best if you can use Public Transportation, bike, or walk.

Your easiest option is to park along Memorial Drive (westbound), which is metered ($1.25/hr) from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm Saturday for unlimited hours (but free on Sunday).

        Payment is by Credit Card at a kiosk, or using the Passport Parking app by phone.

Note that other nearby street parking in Cambridge is often limited to 2 hours.

 If you can't find space on Memorial Drive, might use Parkopedia/SpotHero/ParkWhiz or other sites/apps to help you find deals on parking garages nearby.

There are several garage options in Kendall Square and East Cambridge with closest being:

     62 Main St = One Memorial Drive

     Hayward Garage (MIT) (Close by, but very expensive without discounted pricing!)
