Capital Bikeshare is hosting another round of “Where’s that Bikeshare?” Can you identify the CaBi stations pictured below?

Images 3 (left) and 4 (right).
Image 5.
Here are the rules:
Answers must include both streets in the intersection name (Example: 14st & D St NW) OR the major nearby attraction (Ronald Reagan Building). For DC stations, you must include the quadrant. The order of the streets does not have to be exact (D St. & 14th NW is also acceptable).
We’ll hide the comments so the early birds don’t spoil it for the rest of you. We’ll post the answers next week.
We at CaBi are having a drawing for some great Bikeshare prizes. If you comment on this post and are one of the people who gets the most right, we’ll send them your email address to enter you in the contest. If you don’t want to do that, you can say so in your comment and we’ll leave you out. (Your email address will not be visible to anyone else regardless.)
Want to suggest a station for the next quiz? Email a picture and the station name to CaBi at marketing@capitalbikeshare.com and we’ll consider it for future editions. Good luck and enjoy!
Were you able to guess the locations of last week’s Capital Bikeshare quiz? The answers are below:
Images 1 (left) and 2 (right). All images from Capital Bikeshare.
Image 1 is the station at 8th & O Street NW in DC. A 19 dock station installed at the end of this summer, this station was the most-requested on social media over the summer. You can identify it by the City Market development in the background.
Image 2 is the station at 15th & Uhle Street in Arlington, a 23-dock station at Courthouse Square. This station doubles the access to transit options in Courthouse, and is one of the busiest in Arlington. The back-to-back docks are distinguishing, as only two stations in Arlington have that layout.
Image 3 (left) and 4 (right).
Image 3 shows the station at East Mount Vernon Avenue and Del Ray Avenue in Alexandria. There are 15 docks here, in the heart of Alexandria’s popular dining and retail neighborhood. The clue here is the mural in the background.
Image 4 is the station at the White House. This is the only nine-dock station in the system, and it’s located behind the secure perimeter of the Executive Office of the President. It does not appear on the station map. The clues here are the White House fence and, if your memory is that good, Greater Greater Washington’s post on the secret station.

Image 5 depicts the station at Spring Street and 2nd Avenue in Montgomery, a 15 dock station installed under it’s own awning, on the grounds of the Fenwick Apartments in Silver Spring. You can identify this station by the awning, which is custom for Capital Bikeshare stations in Montgomery County.
In celebration of its 5th birthday, Capital Bikeshare is hosting another round of Where’s that Bikeshare?, the bikeshare equivalent of WhichWMATA. Can you identify the CaBi stations pictured below?
