90,000 square feet? Really? [View all]

Last week, I posted a graphic from Wikipedia showing the footprint of the King #rump Royal Ballroom, as estimated from the model shown by the White House earlier this month. I estimated that the footprint was only about 38,000 square feet.

To graphically compare that to what #rump has been saying the size would be (probably a lie, but let's assume he means it), I've copied that footprint onto the Google Earth image below, in red, and added a 150' x 600' yellow box that would be 90,000 square feet.
