At bottom of ramp, turn left at the traffic light onto Orange St. Go two blocks and turn right (at the traffic light) onto Grove St. Entrance to the parking garage is on your right, just before the traffic light at Whitney Ave. To get to Becton Center after parking, continue walking up Grove Street for 3 blocks until you reach Prospect St. Turn right onto Prospect and our building is the 2nd one on your right.

Bradley Airport is the most recommended provided there are good air connections from your starting point.
From the limousine terminal in New Haven, take a taxi to Becton Center.
