From South of Northampton on I-91:
Take I-91 North to Exit 19 (Amherst/Northampton/Route 9). At the bottom of the exit ramp, go through the light onto Damon Road and go 1 mile until the next light at King Street. As you cross King, Damon Road becomes Bridge Road; stay on Bridge until it ends at a stop sign (about 2-1/2 miles). Turn right onto Route 9 and go 2-1/2 miles or so into Williamsburg/Haydenville.
From Boston:
Take the Massachusetts Turnpike east to I-91 (and see above).
From Williamsburg, the Berkshires and points west:
Take Route 9 East through Williamsburg (we're about 2 miles east of its center) or take the Massachusetts Turnpike to I-91 (and see above).
From Amherst and points east if you're not taking the Pike:
Take Route 9 West through Northampton to Haydenville, or take 9 West to just over the Coolidge Bridge. Turn right onto Damon Road and go 1 mile until the next light at King Street. As you cross King, Damon Road becomes Bridge Road; stay on Bridge until it ends at a stop sign (about 2-1/2 miles). Turn right onto Route 9 and go 2-1/2 miles or so into Williamsburg/Haydenville.
From Northampton:
We're about 6 miles from the center of Northampton. Take Route 9 West, through Florence, past Look Park and the VA Hospital in Leeds, and on into Haydenville.
From North of Northampton on I-91:
Take I-91 South to Exit 20. This will put you on King Street. Take the first right onto Bridge Road, go 2-1/2 miles to the stop sign. Turn right onto Route 9 and go 2-1/2 miles or so into Williamsburg/Haydenville.
Once you get to Haydenville:
We're in an old brick building called The Brassworks. The entrance faces away from the road, towards the river. There are two parking lots -- one to the west of the building (which is the main lot and where the entrance is), the other to the east. If you park in the east lot, walk towards the loading dock, go down the stairs on the left, and follow the sidewalk into the main lot and the entrance.
Go through the large glass doors, past the elevator, and turn right. Our office is at the end of the hallway. There's usually a banner over the door that says "CDSS."
