Foggy Bottom-GWU is a transfer stop on DC Metro (Silver, Orange, Blue), with 2 elevators and 6 escalators in the published inventory. This page shows whether those elevators look usable right now, using the same Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) feed as the live map.

On the Silver Line, the previous stop is Rosslyn and the next is Farragut West. If the elevator here is out and you can ride one more stop, check those stations or the live map before you go.

“Closest Metro” in a memorial brochure does not mean “easy in a wheelchair after the elevator.”
