DIRECTIONS FROM VIRGINIA

Coming north on Route 95, cross the 14th Street Bridge. (If you are in the HOV lanes, keep to your right and follow the sign towards 12th Street. You will then merge with the non-HOV lanes.) Once across the bridge, avoid the 12th Street exit, then take the next right exit to Maine Avenue. This puts you onto 9th Street. Proceed through the stop sign, then get into the left (turn) lane before the light. Turn left at the light onto Maine Avenue--in a few blocks, this road will turn into M Street. After several blocks you will come to 4th Street (a Safeway grocery store will be to your left). Take a right onto 4th Street. After going straight for a few blocks, it will curve around to the left. Immediately after the curve, turn right into Fort McNair.

FROM 270. Take 270 South to 495. At the fork, keep to your right. You will merge into 495 South. Then, watch for the exit, "George Washington Parkway"-- after you cross the American Legion Bridge that overlooks the Potomac River, you will bear right to the "GW Parkway" exit. Once on the Parkway, drive all the way to the end. Make a right turn and keep straight for a mile. Bear right at the exit, "395 North." Merge into traffic as you cross the 14th Street Bridge. Look for the exit "Maine Avenue" on your right. Taking this exit puts you onto 9th Street. Proceed through the stop sign, then get into the left (turn) lane before the light. Turn left at the light onto Maine Avenue--in a few blocks, this road will turn into M Street. After several blocks you will come to 4th Street (a Safeway grocery store will be to your left).
