Directions from Maryland (East of D.C.)
From Route 50:
Take Route 50 west (New York Avenue) into Washington,
D.C. A little over half a mile over the District Line, make a right onto
South Dakota Avenue (its a major intersection, with a light).
Continue on S.D. until it ends at Riggs Road and turn left onto Riggs.
At North Capitol Street, Riggs becomes Missouri Avenue (stay on it). At
Georgia Avenue, Missouri Avenue doesnt quite meet itself, so youll
be making a right and then an immediate left to continue on Missouri
(this is easier if you stay in the left lane).
At 16th Street, Missouri Avenue becomes Military Road (stay on it).
Stay in the left lane. After about one-and-a-half miles, the left
lane must turn left onto Nebraska Avenue; turn left onto Nebraska Avenue
(theres a left-turn arrow). At the second light on Nebraska,
turn left (south) onto Connecticut Avenue (again, theres a left-turn
arrow). After passing the light at Davenport Street, make your
next left (no light) onto Chesapeake Street. CMC is three blocks in,
on your right, past the ballfield. Go just past CMC to turn into the parking
lot, which runs around the building in a clockwise direction. You may also
park on the street, if the lot is full.
From Route 214:
Take Route 214 west (Central Avenue) into
Washington, D.C. At the District Line, 214 becomes East Capitol
Street. Continue west to Lincoln Park and follow signs to turn onto
Massachusetts Avenue. Continue north on Mass. Ave. around Stanton
Square, past Union Station, and around Mount Vernon Place (at 7th
Street). At Thomas Circle, where 14th Street crosses Massachusetts,
travel three-quarters of the way around Thomas Circle and take M Street
going west (one-way). Go four blocks and turn right onto Connecticut
Avenue. Take the underpass under Dupont Circle and continue north on
Connecticut for several miles. The cross streets will change, as
you travel northward, from single letters in alphabetical order,
to two-syllable streets in alphabetical order, to three-syllable
streets. The third three-syllable cross street is Chesapeake (after
Albemarle and Brandywine). Turn
right onto Chesapeake Street. CMC is three blocks in,
on your right, past the ballfield. Go just past CMC to turn into the parking
lot, which runs around the building in a clockwise direction. You may also
park on the street, if the lot is full.
