wow 75+ mixer truck loads
great to see construction restarted, more club space sorely needed in EWR

They really did make this new club above all the existing terminal space; not much headroom up there....but the ceiling looks VERY cool like that! 👍👍👍
I wonder if they're going to leave it exposed like that?

I am sure the pandemic changed the timeline. I would hope sometime next year, assuming that UA has found its financial footing and does not have to go back to borrowing more money to sustain itself.

But United doesn't seem to care, so I doubt it will happen. If they were going to do it, they would have by now.
All the other large hubs have multiple Clubs open, don't they? (I don't get out West much)

Things are moving along... interior rough-in is underway, meaning utilities, wall framing, insulation, some drywall, etc. It's massive, and is going to be pretty nice. I would guess ~6 months away, though. Still a lot of work to be done. The club entrance will be in the vicinity of the old retail/concession area (near the CBGB, past gate 123) with escalators up along the windows, with views toward Manhattan. All new retail and gate areas below.

Going to be among -- if not THE -- nicest clubs in the entire system.
Now one can hope they get this open, close the C74 club for some much-needed renovation and bring it back online quickly.
If only we could get something in C2 .... that's the sticky widget. Ever since Polaris went in, flights out of C2 are a grind.
