The Charlotte City Council Monday night agreed to spend more than $500 million to expand the lobby of Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
The 175,000-square-foot expansion will include larger security checkpoints, additional ticketing and baggage claim areas, more lobby space, an outdoor canopy and two pedestrian walkways, according to the airport.
