re: I agree that DC needs an entrance monument. I see no downside to this.

Boy, we’ve come a long way from a country having a hard time getting people to serve and debating whether or not we should have a president or not to this.

Wasn’t it also Hitler who planned a monumental arch as a centerpiece for his planned capital?
Construction never started. It was halted by WWII.

Seems like I have seen this arch somewhere before. How about coming up with something different. Like a giant statue of Trump straddling the river.

Like Colossus of Rhodes with his balls hanging out

A triumph arch is common in europe. Many nations have them.

The fight against it would be dare I say… monumental.

You are still ignoring the fact that the government isn’t paying for this, it’s being funded privately

Can we do something even a little bit unique? This looks like a vegas-casino copy of the one in Paris.

Pretty much every monument in DC us lifted from Europe. Greek revival. The giant Obelisk which is common in Italy but comes from Egypt. The jefferson and Lincoln monuments are made to look Greek and Roman.
It is how our monuments are made really only the war monuments are unique.

Fair point, ( ) but classic architectural styles aren’t the same as building an exact clone.

If we were not so far in debt. And economy was strong.
But we are not.

Also, can we not come up with something original?

Arches were built be en empire that ultimately failed.
