Finding LTC

Lowell Telecommunications Corporation (LTC) is the lead agency of the Lowell Community Technology Consortium. LTC provides a range of administrative and human resource recruitment services for the Consortium, and its downtown location acts as the physical headquarters for all Consortium mail and administration.

LTC is across the street from a pet store and a bar called the Dubliner. It is in the same building complex as the Park Cafe and the national park visitor center. There is a small park next door with a sculpture of mill girls. Directions from several starting points: If you are driving from Boston (approximately 45 minutes):

1. Take 93 N.
2. Exit 93 at 495 (Lowell - Not Lawrence).
3. Exit 495 at Route 3 then almost immediately bear right and exit at Lowell Connector.
4. Follow Lowell Connector and take Thorndike Street exit (this exit will put you on Thorndike Street going in the correct direction).
5. You will go through two sets of lights, under an overpass, and bend right through another set of lights.
6. At the next (fourth) set of lights turn right into the Lowell National Historic Park Visitor Center's Lot (you may park anywhere here).
7. Walking, leave the parking lot by taking a set of stairs. These lead under a building to a courtyard. Go straight though the courtyard to the street. This is Market Street.
8. Turn right and go to the end of the building and turn right. LTC's first floor entrance is there.

1. Take the Lowell Line from North Station (make sure to check with MBTA about correct departure times).
2. Lowell is the last stop on this line.
3. Once you arrive in Lowell, take a Lowell Regional Transit Authority (LRTA) Downtown Shuttle. This Bus will drop you off right at our building. Indicate that you want to be dropped off at the Market Mill Buildings / Lowell National Historic Park Visitor Center.
4. When you get off the bus you will see a giant archway.
5. Turn left and go to the end of the building and turn right. LTC's first floor entrance is there.
6. If you wish to walk from the train station, turn left on Thorndike Street. Be careful walking through the overpass/rotary complex. Thorndike Street bends right through traffic lights and becomes Dutton Street. Follow Dutton for two more lights, and turn right onto Market Street across from Haffner's gas station. LTC's first floor entrance is at the far end of the first building on the right.
