Stadium–Armory is an
island platformed Washington Metro station in the
Kingman Park neighborhood of
Southeast Washington, D.C.,
United States. The station was opened on July 1, 1977, and is operated by the
Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA). Stadium–Armory serves the
Blue,
Orange and
Silver Lines. The station was supposed to be the Silver Line's eastern terminus, but in December 2012, due to safety concerns regarding a
pocket track between this station and
Minnesota Avenue (the first station to the east on the Orange Line), Metro officials decided to extend the line into nearby
Prince George's County, Maryland to
Largo Town Center, which is the eastern terminus of the Blue Line. It is a
transfer station for the Blue/Silver and Orange lines, as this is the last station shared by the three lines before the lines diverge going east. The station has entrances on 19th Street at C Street and
Independence Avenue.
