Commission of Fine Arts approves revised design for Trump's proposed Washington arch

President Trump's Commission of Fine Arts approved a revised design for a triumphal arch planned for Washington on Thursday. The updated design removes an eight-foot base and four gold lions from the previous version, reducing total height from over 280 feet to approximately 250 feet. The arch itself remains 250 feet tall and will use granite instead of marble for the exterior.
