President Donald Trump has launched a fast‑track overhaul of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, which he described as “filthy,” ahead of America’s 250th anniversary in 2026. The project involves draining the pool, repairing leaks, and applying an “American flag blue” coating to give the landmark a fresh, symbolic finish. Trump has shared photos showing crews already at work, underscoring his push for quick, visible upgrades across Washington. The Reflecting Pool renovation is part of broader preparations on the National Mall, aimed at ensuring the capital’s landmarks are restored and ready for the milestone celebration.
