The contract awarded to Atlantic Industrial Coatings has risen to $14.7 million, after growing by more than $1.5 million from about $13.1 million reported a month earlier. ABC News reports the repainting effort is now projected to cost more than $16 million, while also noting the latest figure is above $14.65 million—more than $4 million higher than the original estimate. The sources characterize the change as a ballooning cost for the same renovation effort, with updates appearing in federal contracting databases. Together, the reporting indicates the project’s costs have escalated beyond the amounts first expected, and that the latest disclosed totals are higher than earlier contract figures.
