A federal court has ordered a halt to President Donald Trump's White House ballroom construction project, delivering a major setback after a legal challenge. "Congress has not ceded unfettered authority to the Executive Branch to dramatically redesign, reshape, and reconstruct the White House — the People's ​House — to fit a particular President's desires." Ambitious Plans ScrappedThe ballroom project is the largest renovation of the White House in modern history, though it is not the only change made during Trump's second term. He has also ordered a redesign of the White House South Lawn that includes plans for a new helicopter landing pad. In addition, the president has ordered the National Park Service to renovate the front entrance of the White House.
