General Parking Info
PARKING: Parking in our area can be tight at times. If you can't find a place on the street, try side streets Upland Road (across Mount Auburn, 1/2 a block up in the Watertown Square direction), Melendy or Dexter. (If you plan to shop for a long time, it's probably easier not to be parked by a meter, anyway!) Do NOT park in the lots that belong to our neighbors, the Uncommon Grounds Coffee Shop and the Green Peapod Restaurant (they will tow). Students in weekend classes are asked not to park on our block during their class. (Ten cars would completely fill up the parking spots, and there would be no space for customers of RWC or any other shop on our block.)PS: Follow those specific directions to 565 Mt. auburn street. I found that to be helpful than a map.
