Photography Tips
There so many good angles of this unique structure, nearly any time you go you'll be able to capture a good shot.
Travel Information
Numerous ways to get there. From Crystal City in Arlington, VA: Locate the fwy overpass adjacent the Pentagon. Next to the fwy offramp, there's a path that runs parallel to the fwy. Follow the path, cross the fwy on the foot path that leads to the Jefferson. Take a "hop on hop off" bus that goes directly to it. Would not recommend driving there. You could also take the nearest subway and walk a short distance (DC).
