THREE MAPS (the first two are upside-down)
The Sculpture Garden. This above map is upside-down (east is to the left!)
Walk to the Sculpture Garden along Lechmere Canal, which runs east from Cambridgeside Galleria (the above map is also upside-down; east is to the left!)
Cambridge Parkway runs along the Charles River near the Science Center. (This map is correct.)
And where is all that? (The red marker is right near the race start/finish line.)
How do you get there?
Walk easterly from the Cambridgeside Galleria past the fountain, along the Lechmere Canal, under Land Boulevard, towards the Charles River.
If you’re dropping someone off, drive in a northerly direction along Land Boulevard (the wide orange road on the map), and pull over just before or after Cambridge Parkway, which runs east/to the right off Land Boulevard (you can use “International Merchant Services” on your GPS).
