Good Shopping Areas close enough to American University, Washington.? |
Travel Info Need a list and directions if possible of shopping areas or malls near to the American University. Travel Tips It depends on what you are shopping for and, to some extent, who you are. Friendship Heights is the nearest "big" shopping area, and it's only 1 or 2 stops up the Red Line from the AU station, or just a mile up Wisconsin Avenue, but it is also one of the most expensive malls in the DC area. If you like stores like Saks, you'll be happy here. Or you can take the Red Line in the opposite direction to DuPont Circle; that neighborhood has dozens of trendy boutiques and shops that cater to a younger, more "hip" crowd. There's also White Flint Mall in Rockville, another trip on the Red Line, this time to Grosvenor station (there's a shuttle to the mall), and that's a nice in-between; some fancier, higher-end stores and some more affordable, every-day stores too. Others Not a travel question. Take the Metro from American to Friendship Heights, there's lots of shopping there. Alternately, you could take it all the way to Pentagon City in VA. There's not that many "malls" in Washington. Georgetown is another place to go for shopping, although it's not as transit-accessible as Friendship Heights. From American, simply drive down Massachusetts Ave NW, and then take a right on Wisconsin Ave NW, which will take you right into the heart of Georgetown. |
