The post-pandemic office landscape is transforming, and savvy Boston CRE leaders are adapting. While remote work offers flexibility, collaboration and company culture still thrive in physical spaces. So, how do we entice tenants back to the office in a market saturated with options?
Parking.
Parking, once an afterthought, has become a strategic differentiator. It’s no longer just about a spot in a dusty garage; it’s about convenience, sustainability, and creating a seamless workday experience. A handful of local Boston properties are leading the parking revolution by implementing innovative approaches that drive tenant traffic to the office.
100 Summer
No need to stress over the commute for those heading to 100 Summer! Tenants enjoy private access to a 24-hour valet garage that offers both electric vehicle charging stations and car detailing services.
One Post Office Square
Commuters driving to One Post Office Square can head to work without scrambling to find parking within the busy city. All drivers are guaranteed a VIP parking spot in the automated garage, even if they aren’t among the first to arrive. Automated garages eliminate theft
and damage to vehicles. Not only are cars kept safe, but so is the city due to the automated garage producing 83% less pollution.
120 Causeway
The Hub on Causeway transforms Boston’s urban landscape by creating a transit-oriented haven with cutting-edge offices, lively retail, upscale hotel experiences, and breathtaking residential views. The property is complete with a multi-level parking garage with direct access to Boston’s iconic TD Garden, North Station, and The Hub on Causeway.

Standing at the crossroads of innovation and community, the building seamlessly integrates the bustling tech hub of Kendall Square with the established neighborhoods of East Cambridge. Ample parking is available with a 400-car below-grade garage, giving tenants peace of mind and flexibility.
In a competitive landscape, Boston’s forward-thinking CRE leaders are turning parking from a chore into a strategic advantage. By implementing innovative solutions like valet services, guaranteed parking, and eco-friendly automated garages, these properties not only attract tenants but also foster a seamless, convenient, and sustainable work experience. So, the next time you hear someone ask “Why the office?”, remember, it’s not just about the work – it’s about the entire experience, and savvy parking strategies play a pivotal role in shaping a positive one.
