Trust me... these people don't really worry about cost.  The project
manager is extremely understanding.
I think the concern, more than cost, is quality and being treated fairly.
I think also the concern is to get done with years of restoration.
When I am working there I often get stopped by pedestrians, I think
local residents, and asked when the place will be finished.

Reminds me of the contractor who during the solicitation interview told
the project manager that they would be willing to work on the exterior
of the Hilton hotel at night.
