President Donald Trump replaced the original architect tapped to oversee his $300 million ballroom due to the massive size of the president’s project, according to a report.
James McCrery II and his boutique firm had been working on the 90,000-square-foot project for three months until October, the Washington Post reported. McCrery and Trump had clashed over the president’s interest in expanding the ballroom’s size, but a combination of McCrery’s small team and its struggles to make deadlines ultimately led to the firm’s departure, the paper reported.
