President Donald Trump posts a series of photos and renderings showing what he says is a new White House ballroom being built in place of the East Wing. The East Wing was demolished last year, and Trump frames the project as part of broader White House construction and modernization.
In his posts on Truth Social, Trump says the “Great National Security Facility and Ballroom” is moving forward on schedule. He also describes the completed ballroom as something that will be unique, saying, “When completed, there will be nothing… like it,” according to reporting that quotes his remarks. Both outlets characterize the update as a preview for the public, using newly released images to illustrate the appearance of the planned space.
The coverage notes that the ballroom has drawn public attention and criticism, but both sources focus on Trump’s latest attempt to provide visual details and a timeline update, emphasizing schedule and scale rather than specific design or cost figures.
