Moving back to Boston

[Beton Brut]

^ My commute from Orient Heights to Brookline Village reveals similar numbers.

And considering that I pay a toll for the Sumner Tunnel and $4.00 to park every day, I'm still ahead of the game. The hour and fifteen minutes that I "buy back" is worth ~ $10 a day.

Driving to work:

Walk to car, 1 minute
Drive to Mass Turnpike: 8 minutes via washington st and cambridge st
Mass Turnpike: 5 minutes
Exit at south Boston, drive to garage: 3 minutes
walk to office: 5 minutes

Did you sell your soul to get a traffic-free commute, or something?

As a resident of Coolidge Corner, this is the part that I have a harder time imagining at rush hour.

Lol, seriously.

The quickest you can do this, assuming you're coming from Washington square:

Walk to car, 1 minute
Drive to Mass Turnpike: 25 minutes via Washington > Corey > Brainard > Royce > Comm > Linden > Cambridge
Mass Turnpike: 10-30 minutes
Alternate 45 mins: Washington > Summit > Allston > Winchester > Camelot Court > Gordon > N Beacon > Everett > Solders Field Road / Storrow > 93
Exit at south Boston, drive to garage: 15 minutes, 10 waiting to get out of the tunnel
Walk to office: 5 minutes

If one person gets so much as a flat tire on the pike or storrow add another 30-60 minutes.

I am basing these times off of my historical results when I'd leave at 630 when I would go over to the north shore in the morning at my last employer.
