If you chose to park in the garage at 11 DuPont Circle (diagonally across New Hampshire from the club) the cost is a pre-arranged $10 but you must bring your ticket stub to be validated in the club.  There has been a recent elevator outage at the building and the walk up the steep inclined driveway may be difficult.  There is also a garage on Q Street immediately behind the club which advertises a flat rate of $20.  On-street parking in the area is very difficult and enforcement signs should be carefully observed (e.g., lots of diplomatic car reserved parking...)

The WNDC is conveniently located one block north of DuPont Circle on New Hampshire Avenue.  It is convenient to the Metro Red Line and numerous Metro Bus Lines.

If you take Metro, exit the DuPont station's north exit and walk 1 1/2 blocks east on Q Street to the corner of N.H. Avenue, turn right and enter the club at 1526 New Hampshire Avenue.
