Timeline of Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool issues amid Trump makeover

Issues persist at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool despite a multimillion-dollar makeover initiated by President Trump. Investigative reporting by David Fahrenthold reveals that the site continues to struggle. National Park Service crews are currently attempting to remove algae that has turned the water bright green. Additionally, a new problem has emerged where the specific American flag blue coating applied to the pool is now peeling off, suggesting the site is rejecting the recent renovations.
