Motorcycle Parking Back Bay Area

[jcrawford]

Hello Everyone,

I am entertaining a job offer right around 500 Boylston St in Boston. In the winter I will be taking the train but in the summer I want to ride the bike. Do any of you know of any places to park a motorcycle in that area? Is it generally safe to park on the street on Boylston or Newbury St?

I would prefer Garage parking if they are decent rates as I feel it would be safer.

Behind the white car, and in similar spots on that intersection. Quite a few bikes use that area, and I got away with it for years

Are you referring to right behind the white car just before the crosswalk or up on the sidewalk behind the white car?

I'm quite sure they added motorcycle-specific parking spaces on Newbury St., though I'm not sure exactly where.

There's metered spots on Boylston and Newbury st. 25 cents per hour with no max. I've parked there all day without an issue several times. I wish they would put some of those spots in the financial district.
