Lot 2 in Harvard Square to Close for Construction Through January 2027

Lot 2, located beneath the Harvard Square Hotel, will close beginning Monday, November 2, 2026, while Harvard University completes structural repairs to the garage.

While portions of Lot 2 were closed to parkers for construction earlier this year, all of Lot 2 will now be closed for the duration of the project to allow crews to complete repairs and stage construction equipment. Construction is expected to be completed by January 30, 2027. 

The Harvard Square Hotel will also be closed during construction and is expected to reopen in February 2027. Nearby residents and businesses may experience some construction-related noise while work is underway.

Questions?

This project is being managed by Harvard University. For questions about the construction or garage closure, contact the Harvard University Construction Mitigation team at 617-496-0857 or mitigation@csl-consulting.com.
