The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is being drained again for another round of repairs, marking another setback in President Trump’s multimillion-dollar renovation of the historic Washington, D.C. landmark.
Trump had hoped to have the pool ready to be showcased by July 4, when the nation would celebrate its 250th anniversary, but the project quickly ran into problems. Peeling paint was seen on the surface and green algae blooms were seen in the water, prompting yet another round of repairs.
The delay caused disappointment for tourists who traveled to Washington in hopes of viewing the newly renovated pool.
“It kind of makes me sad a little bit,” Lindsay Anderson, a visitor from Nebraska, told DC News Now.
“I think it’s unfortunate that a lot of people are here in our nation’s capital.”
