Just got in here now and saw the same sign. Asked the front desk agent and she mentioned a mid-September opening for the new space. Surprised that they would close for renovations if they are opening a new space several weeks later.

Maybe the crowding has become so bad (with the nearby Admirals Club being renovated) that they'd rather just close the lounge temporarily and not have people complaining about crowding, until the reopen at the bigger location that can handle the increased traffic? I agree that it seems unlikely that they would close the current location for several weeks of repairs so soon prior to opening a brand-new location.
Summer (especially August) is also peak time for family vacations and the slower time for business travel. Maybe they are thinking that the business folks would rather not be stuck in a crowded lounge full of families on vacation over the next few weeks...

She also implied that the repairs might have something to do with bringing the space to an agreed-to condition prior to turning it back to the airport. I pressed for more detail and none was forthcoming.
The entire Terminal D lounge world is changing. All the operators want more space. My guess is that the relinquished Amex CL will be repurposed rather quickly.
