Location of Cole Hersee

Cole Hersee has been a major employer in South Boston for well over fifty years, so the locals all know where Cole Hersee is. But we always have plenty of visitors who don't know their way around South Boston… or Massachusetts for that matter!

We're close to downtown so we can easily see Boston from our headquarters. We could easily walk there if we could figure a way to get around the Big Dig! We're also within easy walking distance of the subway at Broadway on The T. If you're coming by car, we're very close to Interstate 93.

Our address is 20 Old Colony Avenue, Boston, MA 02127-2467, USA

Our offices are a brick building at the intersection of Old Colony Avenue, Dorchester Avenue, B Street and West 7th Street. Look for our small garden at the office entrance on Old Colony Avenue.

Our phone number is 617-268-2100


TRUCK DELIVERIES

Check whether you are delivering to 20 Old Colony Avenue or our warehouse at 323 Dorchester Avenue. They are both close to each other.

20 Old Colony Avenue 
Our loading dock is at the triangular point of the brick building near the intersection of Old Colony Avenue and Dorchester Avenue. Follow car directions.


323 Dorchester Avenue
Follow car directions, but with these differences:
From the North & West:
After you cross over a humpback bridge you are at the traffic lights where Old Colony Avenue forks left from Dorchester Avenue. Continue along the right fork. Cole Hersee is the brick building immediately after Ralph Pill on the right. It is set back from the road with a parking lot in front and a chainlink fence. The loading dock is just beyond the parked cars.

From the South:
After you take the extreme left at Andrew Square, you are now on Dorchester Avenue. 323 Dorchester Avenue is 1/4 mile on your left after the traffic lights at D Street (near Marr Companies), and immediately before the next set of traffic lights (intersection with Old Colony Avenue). 313 is set back from the road with a parking lot in front and a chainlink fence. The loading dock is the immediate left just before the parked cars.

Bear right at the lights (near Marr Companies) onto D Street, then left at the lights (near the Hess gas station) onto Old Colony Avenue.
