Metro Stations
The closest metro station is Crystal City Metro Station, located 1.1 miles from our house. The fastest line to get to DC is the Yellow Line. If you're travelling during the Summer of 2019, the Yellow and Blue lines are closed between Washington Reagan Airport (DCA) and all stops south of there. This is due to major repair work.
