"If you remember, I said I want to run it for a year just to see, because the place is falling down. It's horrible. Air conditioning, heating is gonna to be ripped out in its entirety and, you know, it needs new it's old. It's how many years is it, Rick? What's the total? Over 50, and we have 50-year-old air conditioning more than that, actually and it's in bad shape. Everything's in bad shape. It's gotta be redone."
"Putting new marbles in, beautiful, beautiful marbles. When you do marbles, you can't have people walking over the marble every night, as it's drying and setting, and going to a play. So we thought the best way I mean, what I know best in the world is construction. The best way to do it is close it, do it properly, and reopen it, have a grand reopening; and when it's finished, it's gonna be far better than it was when it was originally built."
The Kennedy Center is undergoing a massive two-year renovation and closure to address extensive infrastructure problems. The facility's air conditioning, heating, and other systems are over 50 years old and in poor condition. Trump, who is overseeing the project, explained that closing the facility is necessary to properly complete renovations without disrupting performances. The work includes installing new marble flooring, replacing outdated mechanical systems, and comprehensive rebuilding. Trump emphasized that proper construction requires closure rather than attempting renovations while the facility operates. Upon completion, the renovated center will serve as a premier performing arts facility.
