Trump outlines Kennedy Center facelift, not a demolition
TL;DR Summary
President Trump announced a roughly $200 million Kennedy Center renovation that will preserve the steel frame and only remove some marble, avoiding a full tear-down. Construction is expected to begin later this year (with July 4 cited) and will likely halt performances during the project, marking a high-profile reshaping of the arts landmark amid ongoing controversy.
