At the end of his figure skating performance, when the last note of his parents’ favorite song played in an arena packed with spectators and heavy with sorrow, Maxim Naumov dropped to his knees at the center of the ice. He remained there for what seemed like forever, awash in a spotlight, looking lost and sobbing.

Today a capacity crowd at the Capital One Arena in downtown D.C. assembled to remember and honor the victims of the Jan. 29 plane crash that claimed 67, many young figure skaters, their families, coaches and friends from Northern Virginia.

As $800 million in renovations get underway, Capital One Arena is starting to sell some of the new inventory that will be created.
