Trump Expands D.C. Building Push With 250-Foot Arch After 1 Supreme Court Ruling

Summary
A month after the Supreme Court let his White House ballroom proceed, Donald Trump has widened his Washington construction push to include a giant arch.
That expansion follows a ruling that cleared the ballroom project and, according to the report, opened the door for broader monument construction around D.C.
The arch plan had already advanced earlier Thursday when Trump officials ended a federally required review of harm to historic sites, halting consultation with local preservationists.
The terminated review covered a 250-foot arch, underscoring how legal and administrative wins are accelerating a broader, unpopular reshaping of the capital.
