Trump could be getting more DC arches with his pick to lead arts commission saying three are needed [View all]

President Donald Trump’s lead arts commissioner has floated the idea of installing not just one archway in Washington, D.C., but three.

Rodney Mims Cook Jr. was appointed by Trump to head up the Commission of Fine Arts panel, which is set to meet Thursday to discuss plans for the president’s 250-foot “Triumphal Arch” that would sit at one end of the Memorial Bridge near Arlington National Cemetery.

Cook told The Washington Post that three arches would help the president achieve the vision for the nation’s capital that was first dreamed up by French-American architect Pierre L’Enfant in the late 18th century.

“I think the president should do three,” Cook told the newspaper.
