DL used to have a club at BWI. It was one of the first ones to close when they started to cut back on club locations.

That said, given that they closed the NW club at IAD after the merger, I can't see DL building out a club at BWI at this point. The BWI and IAD demographics aren't all that different. I will also go on record as stating that it's my belief that they'd close the club at DCA if it weren't for the traffic that DCA gets from the Hill and lobbyists (especially considering that the slot-trade will reduce DCA traffic even more).
