If by the loading dock you mean the white-roofed thing on the right in this picture (which would be the south-east side): http://www.defenselink.mil/photos/Apr1998/DF-ST-87-06962.html that is the bus terminal, with the subway station below. The actual loading docks are in the building, on the side of the building facing the viewer (the south-west). If you look toward the right of that side, you can see the exits of the tunnels that run under the south-east side. Until the early 80s, DoD busses used those tunnels. Directly above those tunnels, and running along that entire side of the building is (or at least was; I haven't been there in years) a shopping mall, which is accessible to the public via the bus and subway stations.
