There is probably not one person reading this post that hasn’t finished a day shopping in Georgetown or walked around in search of a cab late at night in Adams Morgan and wished that these neighborhoods had a Metro station.
With that point in mind, Greater Greater Washington recently had a great item that looked at the “Top 10 Missed Metro Stations” or more specifically, the ten DC area neighborhoods that probably should have Metro stations, but don’t.
There are some obvious neighborhoods on the list (Georgetown and Adams Morgan) but also places like Kalorama (the author noted that the gap between Dupont Circle and Woodley Park “feels enormous”) and one of our favorite areas, Brightwood (“a station at Brightwood would fill the long gap between Petworth and Silver Spring left by the Green Line’s sudden turn east.”)
The remaining neighborhoods in the top ten are Cardozo, the H Street Corridor, Langdon Park, Old Town, Alexandria, Bloomingdale, and Lincoln Park. Honorable mentions included Historic Anacostia, Glover Park, Cathedral Heights, Logan Circle, BWI, Shirlington.
