Columbia Heights station is a Washington Metro station in Washington, D.C., on the Green Line. Due to successful redevelopment since the station's opening, Columbia Heights is one of the busiest Metro stops outside the downtown core, with over four million exits in 2010.[1]
The station is located in Northwest Washington at 14th and Irving Streets (entrances at both the Southwest and Northeast corners), serving both the Columbia Heights and Mount Pleasant neighborhoods. It is also close to the Adams Morgan neighborhood. Service began on September 18, 1999.
Since May 7, 2023, the northeastern terminus of the Yellow Line was truncated from Шаблон:Wmata to Шаблон:Wmata, following its reopening after a nearly eight-month-long major rehabilitation project on its bridge over the Potomac River and its tunnel leading into Шаблон:Wmata. Thus, it no longer services this station.[2]
Station layout
The station has an island platform located underneath 14th Street, with an entrance at the intersection with Irving Street. Шаблон:WMATA Green platform layout/island
Public art
Installed in 1999, Woven Identities is a mural and wall sculpture located in the Metro station. Installed as part of the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities public art agenda the piece was created by D.C. architect Meghan Walsh, AIA and youth from Casa Del Pueblo Community Center. A series of painted panels, which appear like mosaics, the mural is abstract featuring faces representing the diversity of the Columbia Heights neighborhood. Neon lights of many colors glow from behind the framed painted mosaics.[3]
