Location

The Martin Group is located on the 2nd floor of Boston Design Center. Enter the building via the West entrance, next to the STARK showroom. Take the elevator to two and exit to the left. Our showroom is straight ahead, across the atrium from the elevator bank. The main staircase also leads to our location.

Parking

We advise parking in Boston Design Center’s automated visitor parking lot, located on Drydock Avenue. Pull a ticket upon entering and pay by credit card when exiting. For the validated rate, check in with the concierge at the 1st floor West Entrance.

Short-term parking is available in front of the Design Center entrance in spaces designated as visitor parking. Park with caution, there is a 90-minute time limit on these spaces and regulations are strictly enforced.

To the Trade

We sell exclusively to members of the trade, designers and architects only. If interested in shopping the showroom, please hire an interior designer who can guide you through the process or pair. The Design Center also offers assistance through a program called Design Services.
