Trump Considers Historic White House Treaty Room into Bedroom Suite: Report
President Trump aims to modernize the Treaty Room by adding a bedroom suite with an expanded bathroom, continuing extensive White House renovations since 2025.
- President Donald Trump is considering converting the historic Treaty Room into a guest bedroom with an upgraded bathroom, according to The New York Times report Thursday.
- Located in the second-floor residential quarters, the Treaty Room has served as a presidential office and Cabinet meeting space since the 19th century, hosting the 1898 peace protocol between the U.S. and Spain and the 1963 Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty signed by President John F. Kennedy.
- During a February 6 tour, Trump asked for a "show of hands" vote on the plan from members of the Committee for the Preservation of the White House and the Commission of Fine Arts, according to Commission of Fine Arts chair Rodney Mims Cook Jr.
- White House spokesman Davis Ingle called Trump the "builder-in-chief," noting the president has already demolished the East Wing to construct an estimated $400 million grand ballroom.
- A White House official told The Independent there are no current plans to change the Treaty Room, though the residence already includes 11 bedrooms with 10 currently unused by the president's family.
