New renderings of President Donald Trumps $200 million dream ballroom have provided new insight into what will soon occupy 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
The ballroom, now expected to be nearly 125,000 square feet, will be significantly larger than the White House itself. The latest mock-ups, obtained by CBS News, show just how much the structure will tower over the 233-year-old executive mansion.
The ballroom, a Palladian structure, appears to have an entrance with stairs facing south, toward The Ellipse and the Washington Monument. At the top of the stairs are six Corinthian-style columns.
Inside, renderings depict a lavish ballroom featuring neoclassical architectural elements, including large arched windows, ornate chandeliers, a coffered ceiling, and, in true Trump fashion, numerous gold accents.

Trump just stayed at Windsor Castle.
The staff said it was totally wrecked.

(35,730 posts)I wonder if they have to redo the rooms
when he's out of town.

(82,786 posts)The walls, furniture, bedding, towels were all ruined.
Fake tan makeup everywhere.
Open jars of tan goop and hair gel everywhere.
Fast food and boxes all strewn over the place.
Everything was stained and ruined.
Yes I assume his WH and MAL rooms have to be cleaned and refurbished all the time.
At taxpayer expense. And there are priceless heirlooms in the WH.
Probably destroyed or damaged.
The items he doesn't outright steal that is.

(32,354 posts)All of trump's monstrous changes to the White House---the ballroom, that cheap-ass parking lot with umbrellas that replaced Jackie's rose garden, the ugly gold "decorations," all of it needs to be knocked down, ground into aquarium gravel, and hauled away. If public funding is required to accomplish that, I'll give what I can. Whatever it takes, to do away with the filthy effects of this unspeakable regime.

(24,838 posts)When he recently ramped up the West Wing "gold" nonsense, there were photos of him and his first wife on a trip...Russia, I believe...standing in a "palace" that looked suspiciously like the West Wing in 2025.
