Norman B. Leventhal Park

Norman B. Leventhal Park is a landscaped oasis in the heart of Boston’s Financial District, occupying historic Post Office Square with a great lawn, fountains, gardens, and seating that offer a welcome break from the surrounding office towers. The park sits directly above an underground parking facility, reflecting a major urban renewal effort that replaced an above-ground garage with green space, so the area is designed to blend business activity, lunchtime crowds, and quiet corners for relaxation throughout the day.

Because it is ringed by busy downtown streets and serves commuters, office workers, and visitors, traffic around the park can be congested at peak hours and curbside spaces are limited, with typical Boston rules around metered parking, time limits, and enforcement. Planning your trip and arranging parking near Norman B. Leventhal Park in advance helps you avoid circling for a spot, reduces stress in the dense one-way street network, and lets you focus on enjoying the park or getting to nearby meetings on time. Street parking can be competitive and may have restrictions, so visitors should always review the latest local regulations and consult official city and park resources before they travel.
