"The pool is being resurfaced as part of President Trump's efforts to reshape iconic parts of the city. He says the project will take one week and cost $2 million."
"Trump told reporters last Thursday that he is working with one of his best 'pool builders' from his real estate development days to clean up the pool, fix some of its joints and resurface it with 'industrial-grade' material in the color 'American flag blue.'"
"When NPR visited on Monday, the shade looked more subdued and workers had seemingly switched from paint rollers to sprayers."
The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is currently empty due to resurfacing work, which is part of a $2 million project initiated by President Trump. The project aims to change the pool's color from gray to a blue shade described as 'American flag blue.' Workers are using industrial-grade materials for the resurfacing, and the project is expected to take one week. Reactions from passersby have been mixed, with some expressing curiosity and skepticism about the timeline and outcome of the work.
