Empty Parking Lot on Broadway

[balsamicdragon.livejournal.com]

Hey there! My sister is visiting us for Thanksgiving,... in her 73 foot long tractor trailer! I am trying to find a place for her to park her truck. Does anyone have contact info for the folks that own the old Shaw's lot? Alternately, does anyone know of a good place to park a tractor trailer that is on the T or a bus line?

Thank you!!!

[Edit]

Thanks to everyone for their helpful suggestions! I think we have not only a plan, but a reasonable back-up plan in case that falls through :) Thanks again!

I was going to suggest the Assembly Square Mall also. I frequently see tractor trailers parked in the back of the lot there overnight.

Except ... this is a mall, and will be packed with shoppers on Friday. The parking lot owner may not want to give up spaces for this purpose.

I was referring to the street behind the mall, where La Quinta, the 99 and Dunkin' Donuts are located, not the mall lot proper.

The other alternative in that area might be the lot where the movie theater used to be. I think that a fitness club has moved in there but the lot is typically deserted.

I would think that there would be some kind of trucker "network" that would recommend places to park, stay and eat when in a city.

The cinema building is vacant. I think the fitness club is in the office building next door and uses the cinema's parking lot.

Assembly Square will fill up? Even on Black Friday, that seems like a stretch.

There's a lot less spaces now that they've started construction on the IKEA area. I've seen the lot be fairly full during the non-holiday days.
