(Courtesy of City of Alexandria)Metro has selected a construction team for the Potomac Yard station, inching closer to reality a project that has been in Alexandria's vision for decades. Potomac Yard Constructors, a joint venture of Halmar International and Schiavone Construction Co. — two global construction companies — won a $213.7 million construction contract, Metro said Monday. Many residents and businesses are angry with the design changes, saying they were lured to the Potomac Yard area by the promise of a Metro station. The Potomac Yard station will be on Metro’s Blue and Yellow lines, between the Braddock Road and National Airport stations.
