East Wing torn down as Trump clears space for his ballroom
The East Wing of the White House has been demolished as part of President Trump’s plan to build a new ballroom. The demolition has drawn sharp criticism from preservationists and historians. The National Trust for Historic Preservation called for the work to stop, stating that the proposed ballroom would overwhelm the White House itself. Geoff Bennett discussed the renovation with Priya Jain.
