The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority reviewed financing details for the project Wednesday.

Plans say a new 14-gate concourse would replace the single level regional gate portion of the existing Concourse A which was built in 1999 and was intended to be a temporary facility.

The project is expected to cost over $670 million and will total over nearly 400,000 square feet versus the 110,000 square feet currently in use.

The new facility would feature new gates, amenities including a lounge, concessions and restrooms and environmentally responsible and sustainable design plans.
