The North Terminal Garage is a historic parking garage on 600 Commercial Street in the North End of Boston, Massachusetts. The three-story concrete garage was built in 1925 to a design by Little & Russell. It is a rare surviving parking facility from such an early date, and is further notable as the site of the Great Brink's Robbery on January 17, 1950. [2] The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. [1]
A plaque on the front of the building identifies it as the site on which "illuminating gas was first commercially manufactured in New England in 1828."
