Directions to NSC via Metrorail Red Line and NIH Shuttle
Metro rail: http://www.wmata.com/metrorail/systemmap.cfm
- From any point in the Metro system, take the Red Line to the White Flint station (which is two stops from the Medical Center station). The NSC building is a 10-minute walk from White Flint station. As you exit the station, locate Marinelli Road and walk west toward Executive Boulevard.
- Alternatively, take the Red Line to the Medical Center station. At the Metro station, look for the NIH shuttle stop, and if you have an NIH ID you can take the free NIH shuttle “Executive Plaza” route, which drops you off in front of Building 6001.
- OR, you can board a Ride-On bus (routes 5, 26, or 81) for service along Executive Boulevard. These routes stop at the driveway entrance to the NSC Building, and from there it’s a short walk to the building.
Driving Directions to NSC
If you are driving or arriving by taxi, please note that the visitor parking entrance is at the second driveway traveling from east to west. The first driveway is accessible only to NIH employees with the appropriate “e-parking” permits. The visitor parking lot is a paid facility operated by PMI ― up to the first ½ hour is free, the first hour is $2.00, and each additional hour is $1.00 up to the maximum $7.00/day.
Thank you for your participation.
