Brookland-CUA is a Washington Metro station in Washington, D.C. on the Red Line.

 

It is located in Northeast at Monroe & 9th Street near Michigan Avenue, and serves

the Brookland neighborhood of Northeast Washington and The Catholic University of America.

 

Service began on February 3, 1978.

 

Originally simply known as "Brookland," in 1979 its name was changed to "Brookland–CUA"

due to the proximity of The Catholic University of America to the station.

 

An unusual feature of this station is that the platform is slightly curved, requiring mirrors to be

placed on the inbound side of the platform, to aid train operators in making sure the area is

clear before closing the doors.
