President Trump unveiled a $22.5 billion, 10-year plan to overhaul Washington Dulles International Airport, including four new concourses, expanded terminals and retail space, a larger parking garage, and the removal of the aging 'people movers'; funding would come from the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority and airlines via bonds, with phased construction while the airport remains open, and United Airlines receiving a new gates/ Polaris lounge. The project aims to preserve the main terminal's historic look, with construction potentially starting in 2027 pending congressional approval. The article also notes Trump is seeking to have Penn Station and Dulles renamed after him in exchange for releasing funds.
