DC's Hub: The NoMa-Gallaudet U Metro Station

A tall, dark bronze Metro station pylon for the NoMa-Gallaudet U Station (New York Ave) stands on a sunlit sidewalk in Washington, D.C., framed by lush green and yellow autumn trees and modern glass office buildings.

Life at the Station’s Edge

NoMa (North of Massachusetts Avenue) has quickly become the city’s go-to for professionals and creatives alike. The area surrounding the station is a masterclass in urban convenience:

The Foodie Scene: You are steps away from Union Market, a gourmet food hall with 40+ vendors, and La Cosecha, a contemporary Latin American marketplace. Whether it's a quick lunch at TaKorean or a Michelin-starred meal at Masseria, your options are endless.
Major Employers: Many residents choose The Hale specifically to be near work. We are within walking distance of NPR (National Public Radio), Google’s DC office, and major government agencies like the SEC and the ATF.
Cultural Staples: Right next door is Gallaudet University, the world’s premier institution for the Deaf and hard of hearing, which contributes to the neighborhood's unique, inclusive, and vibrant atmosphere.
Daily Essentials: The station area is flanked by everything you need for daily life. Trader Joe’s, Harris Teeter, and the REI Flagship store are all right here, ensuring your errands never take more than an afternoon.

Your Direct Line to the City

The Red Line is the "backbone" of the DC Metro, and being 0.2 miles from the platform means the entire District is essentially your backyard.

One Stop to Union Station: Need to catch an Amtrak or the MARC train? You’re three minutes away from the region’s largest transit hub.
6 Minutes to Gallery Place: Head to Chinatown for a Capitals or Wizards game, or to explore the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
8 Minutes to Metro Center: Transfer here to the Blue, Orange, or Silver lines to reach The Wharf, Foggy Bottom, or Dulles Airport.
Direct Access to Upper NW: Stay on the Red Line for a direct shot to the nightlife in Dupont Circle, the boutiques in Friendship Heights, or a weekend trip to the National Zoo in Woodley Park.

Why We Call It DC’s Most Connected Hub

We don't use the term "connected hub" lightly. When you look at the scores, NoMa consistently ranks as one of the most accessible neighborhoods in the District.

Walker’s Paradise (Walk Score: 98): This score means you almost never need a car for daily life. From the grocery store across the street to local favorites like Wunder Garten, everything is reachable on foot.
Rider’s Paradise (Transit Score: 94): Beyond the Red Line, you are served by multiple bus lines and are less than a 15-minute walk from Union Station's intermodal connections.
Biker’s Paradise (Bike Score: 94): With dedicated bike lanes and immediate access to the Metropolitan Branch Trail (MBT), NoMa is a dream for cyclists.
