During an Oval Office briefing, President Donald Trump announced plans for a new promenade named the 'Trump promenade,' which would extend from the Lincoln Memorial to the Potomac River. This announcement came as part of a discussion on investments in coal, where Trump described the promenade as 'beautiful' but expressed uncertainty about the name. He noted that the promenade had been previously planned but was never built due to the construction of two roadways behind the Lincoln Memorial. This initiative is part of a broader effort by Trump to reshape the monumental core of Washington, D.C. In addition to the promenade, he has proposed erecting a 250-foot (76-meter) arch and constructing a 90,000-square-foot ballroom at the site of the demolished East Wing of the White House. Trump's vision reflects his desire to leave a lasting mark on the capital's landscape, further emphasizing his commitment to significant infrastructure projects.
