D.C. United began a whirlwind week in an active construction zone peering into a modern future. It will end the week back in a timeworn environment, one incorporating the state of its current workspace and the way it does business.
By this time next year, United expects to see a mostly finished stadium rising at Buzzard Point ahead of a summer debut — a project more than a decade in the making.
The MLS organization also expects to enjoy the economic vitality needed to begin pouring resources into all aspects of the operation and catching up with the rest of a fast-moving league.
