This is in Maryland, just north of the Washington DC-Maryland border and very close to Friendship Heights metro station.

The redevelopment plan calls for approximately 520 new residences, split up as follows:

  • 175-185 townhomes with two-car garages that will dot the interior of the site.
  • A pair of 48 -unit condo buildings that will sit along Willard Avenue.
  • A 240-250 apartment building that will be located near the corner of Willard Avenue and Friendship Boulevard.

The White House ballroom just got blocked by a judge, for now.

“Where does this leave us? Unfortunately for Defendants, unless ​and until Congress blesses this project through statutory authorization, construction has to stop!” Leon wrote in his order, referring to the administration.

The judge said he was pausing ​his order for 14 days to allow the Trump administration to appeal. Leon said the order does not affect “construction necessary to ensure the ⁠safety and security of the White House.” The Justice Department hours after Leon issued his order appealed it to the Washington-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ​Circuit.

Basically, unless Congress approves of it, construction is to be stopped. In addition, the Trump Administration was given 14 days to appeal the ruling, thus the stoppage is only temporary unless they do not appeal (they are definitely going to appeal) or a potential appeal is denied.

Is that true, though? How is the judge going to enforce his order? Do criminals typically comply with judicial rulings?

Thank God we have the most powerful man on earth focused so intently on the things that truly matter.

Lets hope it stays that way. I dont really have a problem with the beautification projects around DC as long as they dont involve bulldozing historic buildings.

This beautification project so far has been one of the very few things I’ve appreciated about the president. I see zero issue with spending money to revitalize our capital and its monuments before the Fourth of July. 250 years is still a significant milestone despite trumps hijacking of the events.
