Which airport for State Street

Logan (BOS) ~10 min · T: Silver Line to Logan. One airport — Boston Logan (BOS), across the harbor from downtown. The free Silver Line bus runs to South Station, and the Blue Line (via a shuttle) into the core, so a downtown, Seaport, or Cambridge trip rarely needs a car.

The ground reality in Boston

Logan is unusually close and transit-connected: the Silver Line (SL1) runs free to South Station and the Seaport, and the Blue Line into downtown, where it meets the rest of the T — including the Red Line to Cambridge. For the core, skip the car. The 128-belt suburbs — Waltham, Marlborough, Needham, Framingham — are a different story: commuter rail near a station, otherwise a rideshare or rental.

Getting to State Street

For State Street specifically, the Financial District points you toward the T — the free Silver Line to South Station or the Blue Line downtown.
