US president says structure featuring towering winged figure flanked by 2 eagles and guarded by 4 lions, will be 'the GREATEST and MOST BEAUTIFUL Triumphal Arch, anywhere in the World'

The US arch would be over 50% taller than the famous Arc de Triomphe in Paris, according to the official plans. The US president has described the project as "the GREATEST and MOST BEAUTIFUL Triumphal Arch" in the world.

Designs were unveiled on Friday for a 250-foot arch in Washington sought by President Donald Trump that, ​if approved, would reshape the capital's monument-filled skyline.
