President Donald Trump’s $600 million White House ballroom has topped out, with the 90,000-square-foot structure set to include a gilded ballroom, offices, and a security center.
The construction of President Trump's new ballroom has not gone smoothly. Initially announced by the Trump administration in July 2025, the project has faced legal disputes over demolition and financing costs. Construction is proceeding despite its unpopularity with Americans. A poll in April showed 56% of respondents opposed the ballroom.
