The cost of the design for a new Kansas City International Airport has nearly doubled since a developer was picked in September 2017 in a very open, if chaotic, process. Now, Chicago is going with a completely closed process to pick the designer of a new terminal at O'Hare International in a process that's just as bad.
Five design teams have been picked as finalists for the $8.5-billion revamp of Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.
