President Donald Trump released a new rendering of the future White House ballroom on Tuesday.
The president posted a photo of what is to come on his Truth Social account. The photo shows the ballroom, which will replace the White House’s East Wing, overlooking a green lawn, with the White House visible in the background to the right.
“This beautiful building will be, when complete, the much anticipated White House Ballroom — The Greatest of its kind ever built!” the president <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116008650149765600">wrote</a> on social media. “It is a rendering from the Treasury Building, directly across the street, and replaces the very small, dilapidated, and rebuilt many times, East Wing, with a magnificent New East Wing, consisting of a glorious Ballroom that has been asked for by Presidents for over 150 years.”
“Being an identical height and scale, it is totally in keeping with our historic White House. This is the first rendering shown to the Public. If you notice, the North Wall is a replica of the North Facade of the White House, shown at the right hand side of the picture. This space will serve our Country well for, hopefully, Centuries into the future!” Trump said.

Construction on the new ballroom <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/work-begins-on-trumps-new-big-beautiful-white-house-ballroom">began</a> in October with the tearing down of the East Wing. The new ballroom will cost an estimated $250 million, which the president has said will be funded by himself and through private donations, not taxpayer money.
The president has been careful to note that the ballroom is “going to be very much in keeping with the White House.” He personally approved the plans for the addition, not wanting the building to tower over the White House nor look out of place on the White House grounds.
The construction project is the latest major renovation to the White House grounds, with one of the most recent coming in 2009 when former president Barack Obama had the White House tennis court turned into a basketball court.
The ballroom has been <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/catholic-classical-architect-james-mccrery-to-lead-white-house-ballroom-construction">designed</a> and will be built with oversight from architect James McCrery. McCrery, a professor of architecture at the Catholic University of America, is an expert in classical and traditional architecture. Previously, he has led such projects as the Cathedral of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in Knoxville, Tennessee; Our Lady of the Mountains Church in North Carolina; and St. Mary Help of Christians church in Aiken, South Carolina.
“Presidents in the modern era have faced challenges hosting major events at the White House because it has been untouched since President Harry Truman,” McCrery said in a statement last year.
“I am honored that President Trump has entrusted me to help bring this beautiful and necessary renovation to The People’s House,” he added, “while preserving the elegance of its classical design and historical importance.”
In previous remarks, the president reminded donors that the new ballroom would be constructed to match the architecture of the White House grounds, and include more modern features such as bulletproof glass.
“We&#8217;re going to have a phenomenal ballroom. It&#8217;s going to be one of the best anywhere in the world. There won&#8217;t be anything like it, actually,” the president <a href="https://x.com/Acyn/status/1978613637175787901">said</a>. “It&#8217;s four sides of glass, beautiful glass, but totally appropriate in color and in window shape and everything else with the White House moldings, so it&#8217;s going to be very much in keeping with the White House.”
The ballroom will be about 90,000 square feet and capable of seating around 650 people.
