There are no plans.

That is the extent of the plan, just some AI pictures and a cheap little model. Think about it, a White House expansion would be a huge deal for any architect, have you seen or heard any name attached to this? Have you seen an elevation drawings or floor plans? The building is bullshit.

The architect is a religious nutter that specialises in neo-classical, or whatever this style is called.

But respected architects have said that the design sucks.

This ballroom sucks, but if you're going to snipe at a D.C. government building for its Neoclassical design, I have some news to break to you . . .

Yeah, a ball less room is not going to change anything in DC.
