Deanwood station is an island-platformed Washington Metro station in the Deanwood neighborhood of Northeast Washington, D.C., United States. The station was opened on November 20, 1978, and is operated by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA). Providing service for only the Orange Line, the station is the final station in the District of Columbia going east. The station is located at Minnesota Avenue and 48th Street Northeast.
Deanwood averaged just 585 daily entries in 2023, making it the least-utilized Metro station in the District of Columbia.
The station opened on November 20, 1978.[2] [3] Its opening coincided with the completion of 7.4miles[4] of rail northeast of the Stadium–Armory station and the opening of the Cheverly, Landover, Minnesota Avenue, and New Carrollton stations.
In May 2018, Metro announced an extensive renovation of platforms at twenty stations across the system.[5] New Carrollton station was closed from May 28, 2022, through September 5, 2022, as part of the summer platform improvement project, which also affected the Minnesota Avenue, Deanwood, Cheverly, and Landover stations on the Orange Line. Shuttle buses and free parking were provided at the closed stations.[6]
On September 10, 2022, Blue Line trains started serving the station due to the 14th Street bridge shutdown as a part of the Blue Plus service.[7] The service ended on May 7, 2023 with the reopening of the Yellow Line.[8]
