And if you look at that map the 'coming soon' oneworld lounge takes up part new space, part the current lounge, and part the current star lounge.
I thus suspect the LAX oneworld lounge is going to be a work in progress for some time. Why?
1. Whilst the new building in being commissioned both oneworld and star alliance can build their new lounges/ new part of lounge.
2. Star moves to new lounge and closes old lounge. oneworld opens new part of lounge (with a hole thru wall to old lounge).
3. oneworld begins renovating old star lounge to new format and properly connect with the new area
4. oneworld closes the part of the lounge that is the current area, then starts renovating that.
Hence I very much doubt we will see a fully completed lounge until into 2014.

Note that first portion of the development, the new Gate 134 (in the new terminal) is due to open in the first week of September with a temporary connection to the current TBIT
Entire Phase 1 West and Great Hall (where the lounges are) is listed as an early 2013 opening, so you should at least see something "new"
