Trump's planned 250-foot 'Arc de Trump' would dwarf Lincoln Memorial
The US Interior Department has submitted renderings of Trump's proposed triumphal arch near Arlington National Cemetery, showing the structure would stand roughly 250 feet tall, more than twice the height of the Lincoln Memorial. It would be the tallest triumphal arch in the world, with inscriptions reading 'One Nation Under God' and 'Liberty and Justice For All.' The proposed site sits between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington Cemetery.
