Bangla Press Desk: President Donald Trump plans to build a ballroom at the White House as he pushes forward with remodeling the US executive mansion, his spokeswoman said Thursday.
Trump himself and unspecified donors will foot the bill for the $200 million project, she said.
"For 150 years, presidents, administrations and White House staff have longed for a large event space on the White House complex," Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told a briefing.
Work on the ballroom -- which will have space to seat 650 people -- will begin in September and it is expected to be completed before the end of Trump's second term, Leavitt said.
