It's also worth noting that the $33m is for construction of the building shell and enabling work. The Polaris Lounge interior work isn't included in that figure.
Good news - finally, a Polaris Lounge at IAD.
So-so news - it will be 2020 before it is open.
Bad news - the decrepit C/D Concourse is never going to be torn down and replaced by a proper terminal.
Is it too late to move the train station?
