White House ballroom model discrepancies spark scrutiny

President Donald Trump unveiled a tabletop model of the 90,000-square-foot ballroom planned to replace the demolished East Wing, and architects spotted glaring mistakes. The model shows dead-end stairs, blurred windows, and mismatches with official renderings, including 11 rather than nine west-side arches, extra south-side columns, and a single staircase where renderings show two meeting. Experts say the sloppiness reflects haste and poor quality control, not AI. The fast-tracked project, funded by $300 million in private donations, is moving ahead amid reduced oversight after Trump fired everyone on the US Commission of Fine Arts.
