WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House on Thursday announced that construction on a massive, new $200 million ballroom will begin in September and be ready before President Donald Trump 's term ends in early 2029.

It will be the latest change introduced to what's known as “The People's House” since the Republican president returned to office in January. It also will be the first structural change to the Executive Mansion itself since the addition of the Truman balcony in 1948.

Donald Trump has substantially redecorated the Oval Office through the addition of golden flourishes and cherubs, presidential portraits and other items, and installed massive flagpoles on the north and south lawns to fly the American flag. Workers are currently finishing up a project to replace the lawn in the Rose Garden with stone. ....
