"The so-called Arc de Trump would stand 250ft tall, feature a 60ft golden Lady Liberty, and include a viewing deck. The phrase One Nation Under God would stretch across the top of the structure."
"The administration believes the arch will be one of the most iconic landmarks not only in Washington DC, but throughout the world, said Davis Ingle, a White House spokesperson."
"The positioning of the arch, near Arlington National Cemetery, would serve as a visual reminder of the noble sacrifices borne by so many American heroes throughout our 250-year history."
The Trump administration unveiled plans for a 250ft triumphal arch, named Arc de Trump, to be located at Memorial Circle. The arch will feature a 60ft golden Lady Liberty and the phrase One Nation Under God. The proposal has been submitted to the Commission of Fine Arts, which Trump has filled with loyalists. The arch aims to become an iconic landmark, symbolizing American sacrifices. Funding will likely come from a mix of public and private sources, with costs still being calculated.
