Notes about navigating in Washington, D.C.

  • The City is divided into four quadrants – northwest, southwest, southeast, and northeast, with the U.S. Capitol in the center. Therefore, if you are looking for the intersection of K street and 15th Avenue, pay attention to the quadrant. In theory, there could be four such intersections, identified by the letters NW, SW, SE, or NE.
