Boston Rally

The Boston Rally begins at Pier 4.

Does anyone know where this is or have directions to the Pier?

No idea where the pier is but we're motoring up to Boston around 11:00am... all the way up I95 from southeastern NY in all likelihood. We'll start searching from the hotel. Doubletree Bayside off Vernon St.

Pier 4 Boston gives a location on Google Maps:

If you make the Friday night get together and pick up your reg pack, I'm sure it'll have maps/directions

I probably wont make the Friday event.

The Google link says that's Pier 1.

The rally directions indicate first turn is a right onto Northern Avenue.

That appears to put it on the opposite side of the harbor.

Pier 4

try this link...

one of the most famous eating places in Boston is "Anthony's Pier Four", and they've got good directions (and local signeage!)

mind you if you can find the place, getting from there out of Boston should be made easier by the police escort...

I just googled directions from Anthony's Pier 4 Restaurant (02210) to Boston Pier 4 (02128) and they're only 4.5 miles (11 minutes) apart, but they're on separate ends of the Ted Williams Tunnel. This is a little confusing.

Pier 4 (02128) is near the East Boston Stadium and Rec Center, so I'm thinking this is the destination....

But the first turn in the Rally route summary says "Take a right onto Northern Ave."

Makes me think it's on the restaurant side.
