We are learning more after the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts last week approved the design for the triumphal arch President Donald Trump wants built as an entrance to the nation’s capital. The commissioners, all appointed by Trump, advanced the plan despite reporting that there has recently been broad public opposition to the 250‑foot structure. LiveNOW’s Andy Mac is speaking with Jonathan Edwards, an arts and government reporter from the Washington Post, as the planned project is set to feature a Lady Liberty‑style figure, gilded eagles, and gold lettering.
“The building is beautiful,” Chairman Rodney Mims Cook Jr. said shortly before the vote on a design that had been revised slightly since its April presentation. According to our partners at FOX 5 Washington DC, the phrases “One Nation Under God” and “Liberty and Justice for All” would appear in gold lettering on either side of the monument.
