  		The ASWN'04 technical sessions will be held in the Photonics Center at the heart of the Boston University Charles River Campus (building 19 on the Boston University Campus Map). The tutorials will take place in the Tsai Performance Center (building 23 on the Boston University Campus Map). 

The address of the Photonics Center  is 8 St. Mary's St. (off Commonwealth Avenue), Boston, MA 02215. Directions are available here. The technical sessions will be held in room 206 (second floor). Lunch will be served on the 9th floor.

The Tsai Performance Center is just across on the other side of Commonwealth Avenue. The address is 685 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA 02215. Directions are available here. The tutorials will be held in room 226.

The Photonics Center and the Tsai Performance Center buildings are less than 50 steps away from the "Boston University Central" Subway stop on the Green B-line of the Boston "T" system. This is the third stop "above ground" in the "outbound" direction (away from downtown). 

If you are staying in the BU Dorms at 10 Buick street, this stop would be the second stop (going in-bound, i.e. towards downtown). This is about 0.5 mile east of the BU Dorms at 10 Buick street.

Directions to Boston University are available here.
