The NAB is at the corner of 18th and N streets, NW, just south of Dupont Circle.  There is street and garage parking on many blocks in the vicinity--check signs and meters for hours!  The closest Metro stop is Dupont Circle (Red line, take south exit).  Farragut West (orange/blue line, take 17th St. exit) is about 1/4 mile walk up 17th Street/Connecticut Ave.  Parking is pretty bad around the area, so we suggest you give yourself a few extra minutes to park.
