The Washington Office is closest to the Dupont Circle station on the Red Line. When you arrive, get off at the South Exit. Walk around the circle counterclockwise (towards the SunTrust Bank) to Massachusetts Avenue and turn right. 1779 will be on the left just after crossing 18th Street.

If you prefer to stay on the Orange or Blue Line, take the Farragut West stop and use the 18th Street Exit. Walk straight up 18th (towards K Street) until you reach Massachusetts Avenue. Cross to the other side of the street and the Office will be the second building to the right.

Please be sure to allow ample time for delays, as you will be traveling during the height of rush hour.
