How does one get to Burlington Mall from the Boston Area?
Bus, Subway, Commuter rail, etc. MBTA Preferred, since me and my friends don't have cars.
From Alewife Station (northern end of the Red Line) take bus 350 - North Burlington - Alewife Station via Burlington Mall. http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/bus/routes/?route=350&direction=I&timing=W&RedisplayTime=Redisplay+Time
