Imagine if the D.C. Metro system could take you to St. Petersburg, or Rome, or even under the sea.
For now, it can—-virtually anyway.
There’s something wrong—-or blissfully right—-with WMATA.com’s interactive Metro map today, as local Redditors discovered this morning. When you click on a Metro stop to get a Google Street View image of the area around the station, the map takes you to a faraway, exquisite land.
A spokeswoman for WMATA said she was unaware of the glitch, but was looking into it.
Until then, take a look at these dream Metro stops, and bon voyage.
Dupont Circle
Wiehle-Reston East (which, by the looks of it, is much nicer than the actually Wiehle-Reston Metro stop.)
Georgia Avenue/Petworth
Congress Heights
Greenbelt
