Trump eyes new White House lawn project that could reshape presidential travel

"President Trump has continued to make improvements at the White House and all around D.C. to benefit future presidents and Americans," White House spokesman Davis Ingle told Fox News Digital when asked about the reported consideration on Monday morning. 

The White House did not reveal additional details on the matter. 

Fox News Digital reached out to Sirkorsky, a Lockheed Martin subsidiary that manufactures commercial and military helicopters, for comment on any potential involvement in the helipad later on Monday. 

"The VH‑92A Patriot is a recognizable patriotic asset known around the globe for safety, security and reliability. It brings increased capabilities for the no‑fail mission supporting the Commander‑in‑Chief around the world," a Sikorsky spokesperson responded. "The helicopter delivers increased performance and reduced maintenance costs and time over the current fleet of presidential helicopters."

Trump's White House renovations and broader D.C. beautification push have drawn both praise from supporters and criticism from preservationists and political opponents.

A 250-foot triumphal arch is proposed to sit near the Lincoln Memorial at a roundabout between Memorial Bridge and Memorial Avenue near the Arlington Cemetery Metro Stop.
