McPherson Square Metrorail Station
What people are saying
Very close to the White House. The Vermont Ave entrance of this stop has about a few homeless individuals sleeping there, but it is disappointing that the metro staff don't do enough to make sure that the station does not have rats. The 14th Street/ D street entrance is great too, although it is a bit closer to some of the shops, restaurants, and museums.
The station is nice inside and has a modern look, and the Metrorail is far cleaner and more comfortable than the subway systems in other U.S. cities. The location is convenient and close to the major attractions of Washington D.C. if you do not mind seeing a tent village opposite from the exit. Did get a shock when I saw a homeless guy leaning against the fence of the escalator 😅
It is the closer station to the White House. If you are planning on visiting the neighborhood on a budget this is your best option, as it is served by three different lines; the orange, the blue, and the silver. The trains arrive very often to this location. One station away, at Metro Center you can change with the red line that goes to Union station.
So the 52 purposely missed witnesses saw it’s over there, but no one’s gonna care.
Central location blocks from the White House. It breaks my heart to see the homeless campsite at the entrance at 14th St NW near the Five Guys. A sad commentary on our society that we have people sleeping on the street, and the homeless people camped out there have formed their own little community. They have always been very grateful and appreciative for any food or money. When we see scenes like this in America, maybe we should stop and ask ourselves what we can do to help, rather than to be scornful or judgemental. I understand that some people may be fearful, but don't be. I can personally tell you that I use this station all the time, even late at night, and have never had a problem. God Bless.
