One Friendship Heights Station entrance to close for remodeling
One of the five entrances at the Friendship Heights Metro station is closing to get a makeover. Remodeling of the subway entrance that leads to the Mazza Gallerie shopping mall begins Monday and will end August 11.

Mazza Gallerie has decided to improve the aesthetics of the southwest escalator entrance by replacing tiles, lighting, advertising space and the ceiling.

Passengers should watch for signs to detour them away from the construction and into the Metro station as easily and safely as possible.
