The sites for Connect 351 — the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center and the Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport — are located in Boston’s fastest growing and newest neighborhood, the Seaport District, which features exciting new restaurants and activities adjacent to Boston Harbor.
Boston Convention & Exhibition Center (BCEC)
415 Summer St., Boston
Most daytime Connect 351 programming takes place at the BCEC, which is located across the street from the Omni Seaport. Both are just minutes away from Boston’s major highways, and steps away from the MBTA’s Silver Line World Trade Center stop.
The BCEC website has directions, as well as transit and parking information.
