Claim: Farragut North is only a block away from the Farragut West station; however, there is no direct connection between and was built separately due to the National Park Service's terms.
Evidence: Farragut North is only a block away (across the square) from Farragut West station; however, there is no direct connection between the two stations. The National Park Service, which owns the square, would not allow construction which would disrupt the park, so the stations were built separately with no direct passenger connection.
