President Donald Trump’s plan to build a statue garden celebrating the nation’s heroes for America’s 250th anniversary likely will not be completed before July 4.
The “National Garden of American Heroes” was proposed by Trump in 2020 and again throughout the year, even as Confederate statues were being torn down across the country. The garden was planned to be filled with life-size, classical-style sculptures of former presidents and historical figures, including Rosa Parks, Kobe Bryant and Elvis Presley.
