Summary: National Park Service officials have acknowledged that President Donald Trump’s planned triumphal arch for Washington, D.C., will unavoidably harm historic sites in the capital but should proceed anyway. A 22-page memorandum of agreement obtained by The Washington Post finds officials admitting that the construction of the 250-foot arch will have "adverse effects [that] cannot be fully avoided." Veterans groups and historical preservation societies have launched a legal challenge against the planned monument. Construction on the arch is due to begin next week, according to an announcement made by Interior Secretary Doug Burgum earlier this month.
Why it matters: The NPS memo states that "NPS recognizes that Memorial Circle is located within a highly sensitive historic and commemorative landscape and that the undertaking’s location contributes to adverse effects to historic properties whose significance is associated with setting, design, feeling, association, spatial organization, circulation, and contributing views and vistas."
Context: Veterans groups and historical preservation societies argue the monument will overshadow Arlington National Cemetery and intrude upon the solemnity of the corridor approaching it from the Lincoln Memorial. A Washington Post/ABC News/Ipsos poll published in late April revealed that just 21 percent of the American public were in favor of the arch and 52 percent actively opposed.

Summary: The Trump administration acknowledges that its proposed 250-foot triumphal arch along the Potomac River at the foot of Arlington National Cemetery will cause "adverse effects" on the setting and views along the river, but says those impacts "cannot be fully avoided" because the arch’s location is "central to the undertaking." The acknowledgment is in a document sent by the National Park Service to four historic preservation and planning agencies in the Washington area, seeking agreement with plans to mitigate the adverse effects. Those efforts include monitoring construction vibration, controlling noise, an archeological study, and planned improvements to the parkland. The arch still needs final approval from the National Capital Planning Commission.
Why it matters: The document says Memorial Circle, the planned site for the arch, is a historic property listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and that the arch would affect the "setting, design, feeling, association, spatial organization, circulation, and contributing views and vistas" of the location.
