White House East Wing Modernisation Project

under construction

The US military is constructing a massive underground military complex beneath a privately funded ballroom at the White House. The project includes upgrading the Presidential Emergency Operations Centre (PEOC) and adding security features such as bulletproof glass and drone-resistant design. The ballroom will host international dignitaries and major events, including presidential inaugurations. The project has faced criticism for lack of Congressional oversight and public scrutiny, and it has bypassed approval by the National Capital Planning Commission due to its classified nature.
