Towards the southern end of the avenue would be a triumphal arch based on the Arc de Triomphe in Paris, but again, much larger; it would be almost one hundred metres (330 ft) high, and the Arc de Triomphe (at the time the largest triumphal arch in existence) could have fit inside its opening, evidently with the intention of replacing the rather long history associated with this Arch and in particular the unique ceremonies, with reference to the history of France, connected with it.
To celebrate the victory over Latino gardeners and housekeepers?
...and kids too.
They're going to 100% cheap out on the construction, which means it'll start falling apart at a very opportune time.
lol, it’s gonna be made of sticks and plastic
It would be pretty funny if it collapsed even before it was finished.
An arch commemorating the collapse of the US empire. A gender neutral bathroom
Yeah why not
Make sure it looks cool dilapidated and ruined though
I wonder if somebody has taught Trump the term "ruin value".
Ruin value (German: Ruinenwert) is the concept that a building be designed in such a way that if it eventually collapsed, it would leave behind aesthetically pleasing ruins that would last far longer without any maintenance at all. The idea was pioneered by German architect Albert Speer while planning for the 1936 Summer Olympics and published as "The Theory of Ruin Value" (Die Ruinenwerttheorie), although he was not its original inventor. The intention did not stretch only to the eventual collapse of the buildings, but rather assumed such buildings were inherently better designed and more imposing during their period of use.
The idea was supported by Adolf Hitler, who planned for such ruins to be a symbol of the greatness of the Third Reich, just as Ancient Greek and Roman ruins were symbolic of those civilisations.
Heartbreaking: Nazis ~~often~~ maybe once upon a time have pretty decent ideas
🤨
I fucked up with the phrasing :<
"often" is stretching it
sometimes... very rarely... once in a blue moon
what about the golden arches tho
built in under a year? in this country? lol gl with that
It already exists... in New York.
Sacre rogue blanc et bleu
I hear St. Louis has one just sitting around doing nothing.
I mean, what, you expect people to go to a state called Misery???
