Directions from Connecticut Avenue:
Turn east onto Military Road. Follow Military about four miles, passing Rock Creek Park and "zig-zagging" across Georgia Avenue. Military Road then becomes Missouri Avenue. Stay straight on Missouri Avenue for approximately ½ mile. Turn left onto Kansas Avenue. At the first traffic signal, turn right onto Blair Road (there is a 7-11 across the intersection). Take the first left onto Oglethorpe Street. We're in the middle of the block on the left.
Directions from I-495:
Take the Georgia Avenue exit south towards DC. At the DC line, turn left onto Blair Road (a right turn would take you to Eastern Avenue, the wrong direction). Follow Blair Road about two miles, across Kansas Avenue. After crossing Kansas, take the first left onto Oglethorpe Street. We're in the middle of the block on the left.
Directions from Downtown:
Go north on North Capitol Street. Cross New Hampshire Avenue. Go two blocks, then turn right onto Oglethorpe Street. We're in the middle of the block on the left.
Metro Access:
The League is about a mile from either the Takoma or Fort Totten Metro stations on the Red Line. The K2 bus runs between the stations and passes by the shelter on Blair Road, but it only runs during rush hours. See the Metro Web site for details.
