The foundation also wrote that the Commission of Fine Arts, a federal agency that advises on design projects related to the capital, has been involved with past changes to the #ReflectingPool but did not review the new #Trump project.
Charles A. Birnbaum, who heads the foundation, noted that the neutral colors originally used for the pool’s basin were intended to convey greater #depth & #reflection, which is now threatened by Trump’s changes.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@bubakuyateh/116444984468909180
＂Power is the ability to do good things for others.＂
– Brooke Russell Astor
The Rockefeller University » Life Trustee Brooke Astor dies at 105 — <https://www.rockefeller.edu/news/668-life-trustee-brooke-astor-dies-at-105/>
＂… Mrs. Astor devoted nearly five decades to sowing a larger sense of community among the city’s erstwhile aristocracy, as the established matriarch of New York’s philanthropic circle. She regularly contributed time and money to the institutions she referred to as New York’s “crown jewels”: the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Morgan Library and Museum, the New York Botanical Garden, the New York Public Library and The Rockefeller University, among many others. Unusual among her social set, however, she spent equal energy providing for the basic operational needs of homeless shelters, jobs programs, nursing homes, schools, youth centers and other such organizations. By the time the Vincent Astor Foundation was dissolved in 1997, Mrs. Astor had donated almost $195 million as its president. In recognition of her generosity, she was given many unusual honors: In 1981, the Bronx Zoo named a baby elephant “Astor” in her honor; in 1996, the New York Landmarks Conservancy designated her a living landmark. …＂
If it's not (also) true that Leo Tolstoy wrote the pictured words (popularised on Facebook and elsewhere), I like to think people did something good for him. Thanks, perhaps, to Astor.

Palace of Fine Arts Infrared III
The infrared photograph shows the Palace of Fine Arts glowing in bright, ethereal tones. Its grand dome and colonnades rise beside a still pond, with trees rendered in luminous white. The scene feels serene, architectural, and dreamlike, with crisp contrast and a timeless atmosphere.

#Trump already has torn down the #EastWing to make room for his $400 million, 90,000-square-foot #ballroom; he remade the bathroom attached to the #LincolnBedroom in marble & gold; he paved over the #RoseGarden grass; he added marble floors & a chandelier to the #PalmRoom; he covered the #OvalOffice in gold; & he has a new, 33,000-square-foot security screening center for #WhiteHouse visitors in the works.

#Trump has added gold flourishes to the East Room of the Executive Residence in a style similar to the gilded trimmings he installed in the #OvalOffice. And he has affixed “challenge coins” [nonsense meaningless junk] that celebrate his presidency — including the newest medallions in red & gold — to the walls inside the #WestWing.
