Pearl Street On‐Street Parking Study 

Cambridge, Massachusetts 

Introduction 

 

This report has been prepared to document parking activity around Pearl Street, between 

Massachusetts Avenue and Granite Street, in the neighborhood of Cambridgeport, in 

Cambridge, Massachusetts. The parking survey included both sides of Pearl Street, in 

addition to all side streets adjacent to Pearl Street, between, but not including, Magazine 

Street and Brookline Street.  The survey area, methodology, analysis and results are 

described in the sections below. The survey analysis and results outlined in this report 

consider the potential to eliminate parking along one side of Pearl Street.  This study was 

completed by McMahon Associates in late April and early May of 2014.   

 

Study Area 

 

Pearl Street is a one‐lane, one‐way street, that runs in a northeast‐to‐southwest direction 

between Massachusetts Avenue in the northeast and Granite Street in the southwest.  

Granite Street is also a one‐lane, one‐way street that runs in a northwest‐to‐southeast 

direction.  Massachusetts Avenue is State roadway and a major thoroughfare that traverses 

the City of Cambridge.  Within the survey area it operates as two‐way, with one or two 

travel lanes, and bike lanes, in each direction.  Multiple side streets, many of which are also 

one‐way, intersect with Pearl Street, and these were also included in the survey area.  

Brookline Street is considered the one‐way pair for Pearl Street, running in a southwest‐to‐

northeast direction, with a curbside bike lane on the south side.  Magazine Street is a two‐

way street.  All the streets that run parallel to Pearl Street, between Magazine and Brookline 

streets, were also part of the survey area, including Salem Street, Newton Street, Acorn 

Street, Hastings Square, and Rockingham Street.   

 

The majority of the streets in the study area abut residential land uses, with some small 

commercial or institutional uses.  The exception is the northeast section of the study area, 

including Massachusetts Avenue, Green Street and Franklin Street, which is primarily a 

commercial and civic area. The survey area is shown in Figure 1. 

 

Methodology 

 

A desktop baseline inventory of the existing on‐street parking supply was prepared prior to 

starting the fieldwork, and was verified by observations in the field. Parking type and bus 

stop locations were noted, and the supply of existing parking spaces was calculated by 

determining the maximum number of legally parked cars along a given segment.  Legitimate 

parking areas were generally well signed to provide adequate distance from crosswalks, 

driveways, hydrants, and intersections. When signage was not present, traffic engineering 

standard clearances were applied in conjunction with assumptions for 16‐18 foot long 

parking spaces.

Cambridge, Massachusetts 

The on‐street parking demand survey was conducted nine times in total, on three individual 

weekdays, over two weeks in late April and early May of 2014, starting in the morning at 

10:00 A.M., in the afternoon at 3:00 P.M., and at midnight/12:00 A.M. The number of parked 

vehicles by parking type, per block segment, was counted and recorded on both sides of all 

streets in the survey area, including notations on illegally parked vehicles.  Table 1 presents 

the time periods data was collected.

Existing Parking Supply 

 

1,348 total parking spaces/curbside uses, including nine different parking types, were 

identified in the study area as summarized in Table 2, and illustrated by street segment in 

Figure 2.  Existing parking supply by type, by street and by segment is provided in Tables 

A1 through A9 in the Appendix.   

 

Table 2: Parking Type

Disability 17 1%

Metered 17 1%

One‐Hour 4 <1%

Restricted 32 2%

Loading Zone1 25 2%

Taxi Stand2 8 1%

Total 1,348 100%

MBTA Bus Stop 111‐Due  to the  availability of several loading zone  spaces  during the  

overnight period, the  number of spaces  within all loading zones  was  

calculated as  one  space  per 20 feet. 2‐One  taxi stand space  was  assumed to be  20 feet of curb space.  

 

Permit parking is the predominant parking type, and makes up approximately 1,243 spaces 

(92%) of spaces in the survey area.  Permit parking is provided on all streets, except for 

Massachusetts Avenue., and is in effect every day, except Sundays.  

 

Single Disability parking spaces are sparsely distributed throughout the study area, with a 

cluster of four spaces outside of the Cambridge Public Library and Frank J. Manning 

Apartments for the elderly/disabled on Franklin Street.  One Disability space is located on 

Pearl Street, on the south side, between Valentine Street and Decatur Street. 

 

Short‐term parking (metered, one‐ and two‐hour parking), loading zones and taxi stands are 

typically provided in the vicinity of Massachusetts Avenue, with the exception of a minimal 

number of spaces located outside of small commercial establishments including:   

 

Two 2‐Hour (8am‐6pm, except Sundays) parking spaces are provided on the east side 

of Allston Street, at the corner of Magazine Street (beside a Laundromat).   

One 1‐Hour (8am‐6pm, except Sundays) parking space is provided on the east side of 

Erie Street, at the corner of Brookline Street (beside a multi‐unit residential building, 

with ground floor commercial space).

Three 1‐Hour (8am‐6pm, except 

Sundays) parking spaces are 

provided on the south side of Pearl 

Street, west of Auburn Street 

(adjacent to four commercial 

buildings). 

 

A loading zone is located on the 

west side of Erie Street, outside of 

the LB Johnson Apartments (for 

the elderly and disabled) at 150 

Erie Street.  This zone is in effect at 

all times. 

 

Another loading zone (8am‐6pm, except Sundays) is located on the northside of Pearl 

Street, between William and Cottage streets and serves the Pearl Street Market 

convenience store.   

 

In addition, there are two areas with restricted parking adjacent to school buildings.  On 

Granite Street, between Magazine Street and Brookline Street, adjacent to the Morse School, 

there is a No Parking Zone (8am–4pm, excluding Saturday and Sunday), to facilitate school 

bus pick‐up and drop‐off activity.  The area is equivalent to approximately 29 car parking 

spaces.  On Auburn Street, at the corner of Pearl Street, adjacent to the Farr Academy, there 

is a No Parking Zone (8‐9am and 2‐3pm) that can accommodate about 3 parked cars.   

 

Five MBTA bus stops serving Bus Route 47 are located on the north side of Pearl Street at 

Franklin Street, Cottage Street, Lawrence Street, Erie Street and Allston Street.  Other bus 

stops are located on Massachusetts Avenue, Green Street and Granite Street.

Pearl Street On‐Street Parking Study 

Cambridge, Massachusetts 

Survey Analysis and Results 

 

Tables A1 through A9, and Figures A1 through A9, attached in the Appendix, provide the 

data collected during each time period, by parking type on a segment basis.  The figures also 

show a range of percentage availability, at <10%, 10‐30%, 30‐50% and 50‐100% on each 

segment. The average number, and average percent, of parking spaces available over the 

course of the three days, for each time period, is also presented in the tables, and 

summarized graphically in Figures 3, 4 and 5.   

 

The average percent of parking availability by segment shows that during the morning and 

afternoon periods the least amount of parking available is at the Massachusetts Avenue end 

of the study area, and parking becomes increasingly available as one moves further west 

towards Granite Street. There was more average parking availability on Pearl Street in the 

afternoon, compared to the morning.   

 

As expected, the overnight demand for parking significantly increases over the morning and 

afternoon periods.  On Pearl Street 40‐50% of spaces are available during the morning and 

afternoon periods, and only about 25% overnight. Very few streets have more than 30% 

availability during the overnight period.  The exception being Massachusetts Avenue and 

Granite Street, which becomes restricted parking at 8:00 A.M. and at short‐term/loading zone 

spaces, which are also restricted during the day.  In permit parking areas only a few 

segments of Pearl Street, Henry Street, Hastings Square, Chestnut Street, Allston Street and 

Perry Street had availability over 30%.    

 

On Pearl Street, as summarized in Table 3 below, an average of 29 (27%) of spaces out of 108 

were available overnight on the north side of the street, and 33 (24%) of spaces out of 137 

were available on the south side of the street.  This results in an average total of 62 (25%) of 

spaces out of 245 spaces on Pearl Street are available.  This is equivalent to approximately 

50% of the total spaces provided on the north side of the street (108 spaces) or 45% on the 

south side (137 spaces). 

 

On all other streets combined, as shown in Table 3 below, there are on average 212 total 

spaces available overnight.  Combining Pearl Street and the rest of the survey area, there is 

an average of approximately 274 available spaces, 201 of which are permit only, which is 

more than sufficient to offset parking removed on either the north side, or the south side, of 

Pearl Street.

Total 245 183 62 25%

Side Streets: Pearl Street ‐ Brookline Street 570 454 116 20%

Side Streets: Pearl Street ‐ Magazine Street 533 437 96 18%

Total 1,103 891 212 19%

Total Survey Area 1,348 1,074 274 20% 

 

Although one of the primary reasons for this study is to establish 

parking availability during the overnight period, another 

important consideration is availability of parking on street 

cleaning days.  No parking for street cleaning is in effect from 

8:00 A.M. through 2:00 P.M.  Based on the morning survey data 

collected, there are approximately 423 spaces on average 

available on the side streets.  Therefore the elimination of all 

parking along Pearl Street on street cleaning days should be able 

to be accommodated within the neighborhood.

Pearl Street On‐Street Parking Study 

Cambridge, Massachusetts 

12 

In order to breakdown the data into a more manageable format for analysis purposes several 

steps were taken to refine the data as follows:  

 

As there was only one Disability parking space on Pearl Street, on the south side 

between Decatur Street and Valentine Street, and Disability spaces require special 

consideration, all the Disability parking spaces were excluded from the dataset.  It is 

assumed that the City would determine the need for a Disability space based on the 

requirements for that specific location, regardless of demand at Disability spaces 

elsewhere in the neighborhood. 

 

Restricted parking spaces on Auburn Street were included as the parking restrictions 

were not in effect during the survey periods. 

 

Restricted parking spaces on Granite Street, one‐hour and two‐hour parking spaces, 

and the loading zone on Pearl Street at William Street, were included in the overnight 

dataset only.  The other exclusive loading zones and the Taxi stands were excluded 

from all datasets.   

 

Due to the availability of metered parking spaces on Massachusetts Avenue, 

restricted to one‐hour during the day, but available without restriction overnight, 

they were included in the overnight dataset only. Similarly the loading zones on 

Massachusetts Avenue, between Pearl and Brookline streets are available overnight, 

and therefore included in that dataset only. 

 

Where each individual side of the street was counted separately during the survey, 

several sides were combined to form block segments. 

 

With the refined dataset there are 1,246 total parking spaces provided during the morning and 

afternoon periods, and this increases to 1,304 parking spaces overnight, due to the availability of 

loading zones and short‐term parking areas for overnight parking.  As shown in the refined 

dataset, provided in Tables 4, 5 and 6, less than 40% of spaces in the neighborhood are available 

during the daytime (467 in the morning, and 478 in the afternoon) and less than 20% (245 

spaces) are available overnight.  Overall, there wasn’t much variability over the course of the 

three survey days.   

 

On Pearl Street there are 236 spaces provided during the morning/afternoon periods, which 

increases by just six spaces to 241 overnight.  The average availability of spaces on Pearl Street 

increases from 98 (42%) in the morning, to 111 (47%) in the afternoon, and then drops to 57 

(24%) overnight.  As may be expected the average availability of spaces on Pearl Street during 

the morning/afternoon periods increases the further away from Massachusetts Avenue they are 

located, from 0‐17% availability between Massachusetts Avenue and Auburn Street, to 50‐70% 

availability near Chestnut Street and Granite Street.  During the night the pattern is more evenly 

distributed along Pearl Street, except for the Granite Street end, which shows the most 

availability.  This is clearly illustrated in Figures 6 through 8.

Figure 8: Average Overnight Parking Availability on Pearl Street 

 * includes 2 loading spaces (8am‐6pm); ** includes 3 1‐Hour spaces (8am‐6pm) 

 

On the streets intersecting or adjacent to Pearl Street there are about 1,010 spaces during the 

morning and afternoon, increasing to about 1,060 overnight. This is because of the number of 

restricted parking spaces on Granite Street that become available, in addition to short‐term and 

loading zone spaces throughout the neighborhood that are unrestricted overnight, typically 

until about 8:00 A.M.  

 

The streets between Pearl Street and Brookline Street have less average availability (30%), when 

compared to the streets between Pearl Street and Magazine Street (40%) during the morning 

and afternoon periods.  During the overnight period the availability is less than 20% on both 

sets of side streets combined.  Both Granite Street and Massachusetts Avenue have over 60% 

availability compared to the more residential streets.  Unlike the pattern of parking availability 

overnight on Pearl Street, there is no clear increase in parking availability on the side streets, as 

one moves away from Massachusetts Avenue.   

 

The pattern of average availability of parking is quite similar for the morning and afternoon 

periods, as can be seen in Figures 9, 10, 11, and 12, but varies considerably street to street, with 

the Brookline Street side having less availability than the Magazine Street side.  On the 

Brookline Street side availability varies between 4% and 51% in the morning, and between 3% 

and 54% in the afternoon.  On the Magazine Street side, availability varies between 7% and 61% 

in the morning, and between 6% and 64% in the afternoon.

Overnight on the side streets there are over three times the number of spaces available on 

average, compared to Pearl Street.  There are about 190 spaces on the side streets, compared to 

60 spaces on Pearl Street; however the overall average percentage available is less.  On Pearl 

Street there is about 25% availability overnight, compared to less than 20% on the side streets.  

Similar to the morning and afternoon periods, during the overnight period the average 

availability varies considerably from street to street.

On a street by street basis, of the streets between Pearl Street and Brookline Street, between 4% 

and 37% have parking availability, while the Magazine Street side has between 4% and 23% 

availability (excluding Massachusetts Avenue and Granite Street).  Both sides of Granite Street 

have more than 70% availability, and Massachusetts Avenue on the Brookline Street side has 

about 65%.  The overnight parking availability on the side streets is illustrated in Figures 13 and 

14 below.

Additional Observations 

During the survey the following observations were made about parking activity in the area: 

 

On Pearl Street, between Green Street and Massachusetts Avenue, vehicles were 

observed loading in the No Parking Zone. 

 

On Pearl Street, between Franklin Street and Green Street, vehicles were observed 

parking beyond the No Parking sign, encroaching on the crosswalk.  

 

On Pearl Street, west of Auburn Street, up 

to three vehicles typically parked in an 

area that is effectively a curb‐cut for the 

adjacent auto‐garage.  These spaces were 

not counted as legally parked and 

therefore were not included in the dataset. 

 

On Massachusetts Avenue, delivery 

trucks were observed loading in the Taxi 

Stand. 

 

On Franklin Street, construction, and other, vehicles were observed parked in a No 

Parking Zone during two count periods. On Day 1 there was some roadway 

construction work underway on Franklin Street, and therefore some parking spaces 

were closed off.   

 

Also on Day 1, on Lopez Street, there was some roadway construction and 

approximately six spaces were closed off. 

 

On McTernan Street, two vehicles were parked in a fading crosswalk. 

 

On Erie Street, one permit parking space on Day 3 was taken up by a dumpster. 

 

At the 2‐Hour parking area on Allston Street a vehicle was observed parked and 

encroaching on the crosswalk during the overnight count. 

 

Several motorcycles were observed parked on Acorn Street, Hamilton Street, Allston 

Street, Glenwood Avenue, and Speridakis Terrace during several of the surveys at 

different times of the day. Other motorcycles were parked on Franklin Street and Green 

Street.   

 

During one overnight survey, observers counted approximately 40 Toyota Prius 

vehicles, supporting the application of shorter 16 foot car parking spaces when 

estimating the number of parking spaces provided.

The length of existing MBTA bus stops was 

noted to verify whether the necessary length is 

provided to enable the bus to fully pull to the 

curb.  Should this study result in the 

elimination of parking along one side of Pearl 

Street, the City could use the opportunity to 

relocate or consolidate bus stops to offset the 

parking loss, while lengthening stops that may 

need additional space.  As shown in Table 7 

three of the stops require lengthening in their 

current location, however each of the stops are 

located very close together.  MBTA guidelines 

indicate a bus stop spacing of 700‐1,350 feet, so there is potential for some bus stop 

consolidation, or relocation of some nearside/midblock stops to farside of the intersection that 

minimizes parking impacts, while allowing easier access to and egress from the stop from the 

driver’s perspective.

Summary and Conclusions 

This report was prepared to document parking activity on Pearl Street and adjacent streets 

within the Cambridgeport neighborhood.  Parking/curbside space within the study area is 

comprised of predominantly permit parking, in addition to Disability, short‐term, restricted, 

loading, taxi spaces and bus stops.   

 

Over three survey days in late April/early May of 2014 during the morning, afternoon, and 

overnight time periods, the on‐street parking survey results show that there is parking 

availability along Pearl Street, and on its neighboring streets at all times of the day and night,

although as expected the demand overnight is the greatest.  On Pearl Street there are 40‐50% of 

spaces available during the daytime, and only about 25% overnight.  The average total available 

spaces on Pearl Street (62 spaces) is equal to approximately 50% of the total spaces provided on 

the north side of the street (108 spaces) or 45% on the south side (137 spaces).  With an average 

of 212 spaces available overnight elsewhere in the neighborhood, for a neighborhood‐wide total 

of 274 spaces, 201 of which are permit only, there is sufficient overall parking supply within the 

neighborhood to meet the parking demand, if parking along one side of Pearl Street was 

eliminated. 

 

It is noted that this extent of parking availability would not be representative of street cleaning 

days, when parking demand is higher.  However, based on the morning survey data collected, 

which  indicated  an  average  of  approximately  423  spaces  available  on  the  side  streets,  there 

should be sufficient availability throughout the neighborhood on street cleaning days.
