Two Renaissance Garage spaces are 0.7 mi away and cost $25 a day. A covered space at 10 Gainsborough St. is also 0.7 mi away and costs $25 a day. These options suit visits long enough to make a daily booking worthwhile, including extended outpatient appointments and hospital shifts.

Arriving at the Hospital for Drop-Off or Emergencies

Street Parking and Residential Rules Around Massachusetts Avenue
The hospital is at 745 Massachusetts Avenue in Roxbury, near South End. Its urban setting means curb space around the campus is shared with local traffic, homes, and businesses, so a street space is not a dependable substitute for the hospital garages or a reserved nearby space.
Drivers making a patient drop-off should avoid leaving a vehicle unattended at a curb and should keep emergency access clear around Albany Street. The hospital identifies the Emergency Department at 725 Albany Street, making that frontage especially important for arriving ambulances and urgent patient vehicles (bmc.org).
For a visit that lasts several hours, a garage or reserved Parksy space is the more workable choice than relying on residential curb space. A monthly Parksy space 0.7 mi away is available for $275, while daily garage options near Crosstown Center are 270 yd away for $25 a day.

Northampton station is the nearest station, 0.2 mi from the hospital and a 4 min walk. The hospital address is 745 Massachusetts Avenue, so rail passengers can reach the campus on foot without arranging a parking space for a routine appointment.
That service can help visitors and staff connect with the campus outside standard daytime travel, including early and overnight journeys.
Drivers switching to transit can also avoid the daily garage rate, which reaches $40 for 7+ hours at the 710 Albany Street Garage (bmc.org). For anyone traveling from South End centre, the hospital is 0.5 mi away, making walking or a short local connection practical when the appointment does not require a car.
