The president of the United States promotes unprecedented extension in the official residence with a monumental construction based on the classic and luxurious style.
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, surprised again with an announcement that mixes both politics and architecture and show, since He wants to add a gigantic dance hall to the White House. The work in question promises to be the greatest modification in decades within the presidential residence.
The space, according to what they advanced from their administration, will have an unprecedented size and will be financed with private contributions. The idea, which Trump has been promoting for years, seeks to leave a mark on the history of the most emblematic mansion in the United States.

What would Trump want to build in the White House would be like
The project plans a Hall of 8,360 square meterswith the ability to receive 650 guests. The design, which has a classical inspiration, will include Candelabros, Floor to Ceiling Windows and Artesonated Roofsreplicating the historical aesthetics of the building.
Construction will take the place of the current East wingwhere the offices of the First Lady and his team work. The new sector will be connected to the main body through a covered catwalkalthough it is going to be maintained as an independent structure.
The estimated cost of the work is U $ 200 millionwhich will be financed with contributions from Trump and relative donors. The beginning of the tasks is planned to September 2025with the demolition of the east wing and initial excavations under the supervision of the Secret serviceto guarantee the security of the complex. The inauguration is planned before the current mandate ends.
Anyway, the idea did not arise from nothing. Trump had already talked about a similar project in 2016 and said he had offered a dance hall of US $ 100 million during the presidency of Barack Obama. Later, he said he repeated the proposal at the time of Joe Biden, without receiving an answer.
In statements to US media, the president said that it will be a “First class lounge”something that, according to him, is expected for a century in the White House. He also stressed that his experience in the world of construction differentiates it from the previous presidents.
Trump remains firm in his idea that space will not only serve to Official Receptions and Censes of Statebut also for Patriotic celebrations and protocol events.
