Access and arrival
9 km (5.6 mi) separates Malkin Athletic Center from Logan International Airport (BOS) — normal for a city venue, and worth a line in the joining instructions rather than a shuttle contract.
The centre of Boston is 5.1 km (3.2 mi) away, which is a taxi rather than a walk and a reason to publish an arrival map.
Boston has 182 venues mapped in total and a population of 673,458. The Boston guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
The kind of event it takes
A room for 1,000 is a plenary space in practice, whatever it is classified as. It ranks 24th among the 182 venues mapped in Boston.
- award ceremonies
A stage, a bowl of seats and a control room already in place.
- company all-hands
One room, everybody in it, nobody watching on a screen in an overflow space.
