Trump Administration Renovates Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool
A $14 million renovation failed to prevent algae growth.
Event Overview
The Trump administration spent $14 million to renovate the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, including dyeing the floor 'American flag blue.' Shortly after completion, algae caused the water to turn green, and the floor coating began peeling. Critics and litigants argue the project was a rushed vanity project that ignored structural pipe issues.
