Trumps unveil room designs of D.C. hotel

Crystal chandeliers from Austria will soon adorn the 270 guest roo🔜ms and ballrooms in Washington, D.C.’s historical Clock Tower building on Pennsylvania Avenue near the White House that is being converted into the $200 million Trump International Hotel, Old Post Office Bu🃏ilding, by the Trump Organization.

Donald J. Trump aꦏnd daughter Ivanka on Tuesday flew to D.C. for the unveiling of the room designs.

“This is going to be a fantastic job,” the developer said later. “It’s the best block𝕴 in Washington and one of the greatest buildings in the count🎐ry.”

The Trumps won the public bid and signed a contract with the Gener♔al Services Administration to re⛎develop the hotel that is now being emptied of office tenants.

“The entry atrium goes up nine stories to an ဣunbelievable glass skylight top, and you can see the Clock Tower above it that will remain open to the public,” said Ivanka.

The Post Office hotel🎃 is also the tallest occupy-able building in D.C., noted Ivanka, who is oveꩵrseeing the job for the family and expecting her second child in the coming weeks.

Guest rooms averaging 600 square feet will hav🐽e 20-foot ceiling heights. The Presidential suites are over 1,600 square feet and the large, column-free ballroom stretches 14,000 square feet. More ballrooms, a library, museum and gardens will also be included in the new hotel.

Ivanka will also install her signature Mar-a-Lago Spa. The chandeliers will come from the same company that made them for the grand ballroom at Mar-a-Lago, their private club in Palm Beach, where Trump celebrated his marria꧂ge to his wife, Melania. “People that go in there go crazy over them,” said Trump.

The D.C. ballroom cou♊ld someday even become the new site of the White House Press Corps’ annual roast of the president, a job that Trump would still take in a heartbeat.
