One Friendship Heights Station entrance to close for remodeling

One of the five entrances at the Friendship Heights Metrorail station will be closed next week from Monday, October 16 until Thursday November 23, due to remodeling of the subway entrance that leads to the Mazza Gallerie shopping mall.

Mazza Gallerie is improving 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.
