How to Get to the Boston Passport Agency
The Boston Passport Agency is located in Boston's North end next to the Fleet Center and I-93. From Logan Airport, take the Callahan Tunnel/Boston to I-93 North. Go one exit on I-93 (stay right) and take the first exit for Causeway Street. Go left at the bottom of the ramp and the Tip O'Neill Building is located one block down on the right next to the Fleet Center. From the North on Route I-93, drive south on I-93, use exit 26A and follow the access road. As the access road turns right, look for the signs to Cambridge and North Station on the right and take that exit. At the set of lights go left and at the next set of lights go left again. Go straight through the next set of lights following the signs for North Station and the Fleet Center. After a short distance you will be directly behind the Federal Building, which is next to the Fleet Center/North Station. There is ample parking in the area.
