Directions from Northern Virginia

From Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Bridge:
Take Route 66 east over Teddy Roosevelt Bridge into Washington, D.C., and continue straight onto Constitution Avenue. Turn left onto 17th Street. At K Street, the road turns slightly left; this is the beginning of Connecticut Avenue. Continue north on 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.

From Arlington Memorial Bridge:
Stay in the middle crossing the bridge and turn to the left at the end, around the circle in front of the Lincoln Memorial. You will be barred from travelling completely around this circle, so turn to your left at the barrier onto Henry Bacon Drive. At the end of the block, at the light, turn right onto Constitution Avenue. After about five blocks, turn left onto 17th Street. At K Street, the road turns slightly left; this is the beginning of Connecticut Avenue. Continue north on 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.

From Francis Scott Key Bridge:
At the end of the bridge pass the entrance to Whitehurst Freeway and take the next right onto M Street. You are now in Georgetown in Washington, D.C. Go about four blocks and turn left (north) onto Wisconsin Avenue (there should be a left-turn arrow). The street will rise in altitude for a few miles; at the top of this hill you’ll pass Washington National Cathedral on your right (this is the highest point in D.C.). 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. You will now be in the two-syllable streets, so turn right onto Porter Street. Travel six blocks and turn left onto Connecticut Avenue. Continue north on Connecticut about a mile until you hit the three-syllable cross 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.
