Nonprofit Technology Resources is located just North of Center City Philadelphia on Brandywine Street. Brandywine is the first small street north of Spring Garden Street. Both Brandywine and Spring Garden are east/west streets. For automobiles, Brandywine is one-way to the west. NTR is on the 1500 block between 15^th Street and 16^th Streets. One may enter Brandywine by car from Broad Street (which takes the place of 14^th Street in Philadelphia) or from 15^th Street.

Auto
If you are arriving by car, NTR has its own parking lot adjacent to the building. The entrance to the parking lot is between our red brick building and the yellow masonry wall near the end of our block. Once parked, walk back to Brandywine Street and ring our door bell.

If you are driving into town via I-76, use I-676 (signs will also mention Center City or Vine Street). Take the Broad Street exit. There is a traffic light at the top of the ramp. You are now facing East on Vine Street . Proceed to the next traffic light and make a left turn onto Broad Street. Proceed north on Broad Street past Spring Garden Street (the next large street.) Brandywine is the next little street. Make a left turn from Broad Street onto Brandywine Street with caution, because you will be using the turn lane for the oncoming traffic.

If you are taking I-95 or the Ben Franklin Bridge, follow the signs for center city via I-676. Exit I-676 at Broad Street. You will find yourself on 15th Street at Vine, heading South. Make a left turn onto the local traffic lanes of Vine Street. Proceed to the next traffic light and make a left turn onto Broad Street. Proceed north on Broad Street past Spring Garden Street (the next large street.) Brandywine is the next little street. Make a left turn from Broad Street onto Brandywine Street with caution, because you will be using the turn lane for the oncoming traffic.

Greyhound or Trailways Bus
The bus terminal at 10th and Filbert Streets is within walking distance (about a mile) from our site. A taxi cab ride will cost about $5.00.

Amtrak Train
You may want to take a taxi from Philadelphia’s Amtrak Station at 30th and Market Streets. But you’ll save money by using the Market Street Subway. The taxi ride might cost as much as five dollars. The subway is $2.00. Board the subway across 30th Street from the train station. Ask someone to point out the entrance. You want to catch the eastbound train and just ride for one stop to 15th Street. See the next item for further directions.

Market-Frankford Subway
From the 15th Street subway stop, find your bearings by noting that City Hall is East of you. You can’t miss City Hall... it took Calder’s Grandfather nearly thirty years to create the sculpture and decorations on it. William Penn, founder of the State stands on the top of City Hall tower. From the subway stop you want walk to the north side of City Hall and walk north five long blocks along Broad Street or along 15^th Street. Instead of walking, you can take the Broad Street Subway line to Spring Garden Street. Or you can take the "C" bus along Broad Street.

Philadelphia Airport
The easiest way from the airport to a hotel is by limo. Cabs cost a flat $20. There are busses, but they’re not a good option for coming into town. There is an Airport train that you can take to Suburban Station. Suburban Station is located at 16th and JFK Blvd. Look for City Hall to your East, then follow the directions above for coming to NTR from the Subway.
