Details
This deepest of Metro's stations, at 200 feet below street level, is the only one with an elevator-only exit, required because it was too deep for an escalator from the platform to the mezzanine level. The station is just north of the Capital Beltway, and the Forest Glen Medical Center is nearby.
From here you can...
go back to the Metro project,
jump to the red line,
go inbound to Silver Spring,
or outbound to Wheaton.
