5 Things That Make Our Metro Center Location Awesome

As the leader in shared, temporary, and virtual office space in the Washington, D.C., area for more than 25 years, Metro Offices knows a thing or two about the importance of location here in the capital city. While each of our three D.C. spots is centrally located, our Metro Center location is especially convenient for clients and potential clients.

Here, we give the low-down on the specs that make our Metro Center location, at 700 12th St. NW, so covet-worthy.

Member Lounge

Whether you have a client or co-worker meeting, or you simply want to grab a drink and chat with colleagues for happy hour, our sleek, well-appointed, brightly lit Member Lounge has what you need.

Fitness Center

Why not get a head-start on that New Year’s resolution by kicking your workout into high(er) gear? As a Metro Offices client, you’ll have access to our executive office suites in Metro Center with fully equipped, state-of-the-art fitness center. As the weather gets cooler, you may not want to leave the comfort of the office building to exercise, and you won’t have to if you’re working at our Metro Center location. Just head downstairs and your workout awaits you. Free weights, treadmills, ellipticals and more — do what suits you, all without venturing outdoors.

Rooftop Terrace

Few views in D.C. are as iconic as the one seen from our Metro Offices location. On our rooftop terrace, visitors can take in the Washington Monument and U.S. Capitol building, among other features of the beautiful District skyline. When the weather is nice, as it often is in the fall in D.C., Metro Offices clients can eat lunch, work, relax, or meet colleagues or clients of their own on the stylish, comfortable deck furniture. Our powerful, lightning-speed WiFi won’t let you down, even on the roof.

Food Trucks

OK, so the food trucks don’t come into the office, but they’re so conveniently located outside it that they might as well. Whether your lunch tastes run to the more traditional or you’re the first to line up to try a new food trend, these trucks will have something you’ll want to gobble up. Options vary from day to day (you can follow your favorite trucks on Twitter so you know when they’ll be at the Metro Center location if it’s on their route), but they run the gamut. Expect to see everything from pho to crepes to kebabs and more. With wait times of around 10 minutes for fresh, made-to-order grub and prices generally lower than what you’d pay at a sit-down restaurant in the area, the Metro Center food trucks can’t be beaten for a meal during the workday.

Gallery Place/Chinatown 

Our Metro Center location is mere minutes, by foot, from the nightlife, dining, and sporting-event hotspot that is the Gallery Place/Chinatown area. Catch a major concert or Wizards or Capitals game at the Capital One Arena on F Street, sample the latest delicious tapas from Jose Andres’ Oyamel Cocina Mexicana, or check out trivia night at Irish Channel. It’s all a quick walk away from our offices.
