White House officials said the new architect was brought on as the project enters a new phase and new expertise is required.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Shalom is an accomplished architect whose work has shaped the architectural identity of our nation&#8217;s capital for decades and his experience will be a great asset to the completion of this project,&#8221; White House spokesman Davis Ingle said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He predicted the ballroom would be the &#8220;greatest addition to the White House since the Oval Office.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The current architect, James McCrery, remains in a consulting role, the sources said. He and Mr. Trump have clashed over the <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/white-house-state-ballroom-east-wing-trump\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">size of the ballroom<\/a><\/span> and its synchronicity with the main White House building, sources told CBS News. The Washington Post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2025\/11\/26\/trump-ballroom-architect-james-mccrery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">previously reported<\/a> on the disagreements.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for McCrery did not respond to a request for comment. Shalom Baranes Associates didn&#8217;t immediately comment.<\/p>\n<p>The White House plans to submit ballroom construction plans to the National Capital Planning Commission this month, according to a White House official and NCPC chairman Will Scharf.<\/p>\n<p>The plans will then move through the commission&#8217;s process at a &#8220;normal and deliberative pace,&#8221; Scharf said in remarks at the beginning of a monthly NCPC meeting Thursday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He said he was excited for the commission to play a &#8220;constructive role&#8221; in &#8220;one of the most important projects&#8221; in Washington.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Scharf reiterated that the commission does not have a role in site preparation or <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/new-photos-white-house-east-wing-demolition-trump-ballroom\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">demolition<\/a><\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut introduced legislation that would require NCPC review &#8220;before initiating any demolition activities.&#8221; The bill, if passed, would also require congressional approval for privately-funded White House construction projects.<\/p>\n<p>Blumenthal said his bill, the &#8220;No Palaces Act,&#8221; &#8220;prevents future presidents from recklessly destroying historic sites like the East Wing without approval from the independent National Capital Planning Commission or consideration from Congress.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Trump said this week that the construction effort is going well, although first lady Melania Trump dislikes the noise.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I wouldn&#8217;t say my wife is thrilled,&#8221; he said Tuesday at a <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/trump-cabinet-meeting-venezuela\/\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Cabinet meeting<\/a><\/span>. &#8220;She hears pile drivers in the background all day, all night.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They go till 12 o&#8217;clock in the morning \u2014 day, night, pile drivers. &#8216;Darling, could you turn off the pile drivers?&#8217; &#8216;Sorry, darling.
