US President Donald Trump said he plans to build a triumphal arch in Washington, D.C., arguing that the capital should have a landmark reflecting “glamour,” “prestige,” “beauty,” and “strength.” He said the project would add a bold and symbolic monument to the city’s architectural landscape.
Trump stated that the structure would stand at around 250 feet tall, making it one of the most prominent monuments in the US capital. He described the project as introducing a new monumental feature intended to project national confidence and strength.
According to Trump, the arch would serve as a visual symbol of power and beauty, reshaping Washington’s skyline while reinforcing the city’s status as a center of prestige and authority.
