The president said in an early-morning Truth Social post that the arch will actually now be some sort of military complex.
“At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage,” Trump posted.
He also proclaimed that “Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all!”

The arch is one of many of Trump’s so-called “beautification” projects that have come under heavy scrutiny in his second term.
Federal officials have admitted that the arch will harm nearby historical sites, but insisted that it must be built regardless.
The proposed arch currently stands at 250 feet tall and will be built on Memorial Circle, the roundabout leading to Arlington National Cemetery. With its height, it will effectively dwarf the 99-foot Lincoln Memorial across the river.
