From the north or east:
Take Route 2 into Norwich. As you approach the end of the highway, bear right onto Rt 2/32 (a hospital is on the right). Proceed straight to the second traffic light, and the road will V (a Greek Church will be on the left). Go to the left at the V, and very quickly the road will V again -- stay to the left (the high school is on the left). Go straight through the stop sign to the end of the street (Broad St). Turn left to Broad St, and go through the first traffic light. The road will wind on to the second light (Boswell St). Turn left onto Boswell and follow to stop sign (Hickory St). Turn right onto Hickory and follow down the hill (you will see the gold dome of St Nicholas). Take the first right (Golden St) and then a quick left onto Convent St. St Nicholas is on the left, park in the lot beyond the church.
From the south or west:
Take Route 95 coming from either direction until you reach Rt 395 north. Follow Rt 395 to exit 80 East (Rt 82). As you come off the exit ramp follow Rt 82 past all the fast food and strip malls. You will eventually see the old center of the city. As you come down the "hill" you will see the waterfront, stay to the right. Follow signs for Rt 2 east. This will take you through the city. Watch for signs for Rt 12 north. As Rt 2 goes off to the right, follow Rt 12 north. This road goes straight. As it widens out, watch for a Mercury car dealer. This road will V. Rt 12 goes to the right, but stay to the left. At the top of the hill there is a large Catholic Church. Make a left onto Convent Ave. Our Church is next to the Catholic Church.
