The administration under President Donald Trump aims to build a triumphal arch near Arlington National Cemetery. The site is Memorial Circle, where workers began taking measurements on May 15, 2026. The proposed design features a 250-foot tall structure.
A significant aspect of this plan involves using an old authorization from 101 years ago intended for a different project in the same location. This authorization, passed by Congress, never resulted in construction.
The administration argues that there is no need for further Congressional approval due to the previous authorization.
