Overview
- New yellow and white-striped umbrellas and matching furnishings replicate the Mar-a-Lago patio aesthetic outside the West Wing.
- White stone pavers, chosen for their reflective properties and color match to the residence, replaced the lawn to reduce surface heat and improve event footing.
- No public functions have been held on the new patio as officials complete final preparations ahead of a formal reopening ceremony.
- The Trust for the National Mall, the National Park Service and private donors funded the Rose Garden’s renovation under President Trump’s direction.
- A privately backed, $200 million East Wing ballroom expansion modeled on Mar-a-Lago’s event space is slated to break ground this fall.
