United States President Donald Trump announced a plan on October 18, 2026, to redevelop a golf course in Washington, D.C., that is currently involved in a legal dispute, UPI reported. Trump posted on social media that the United States Department of the Interior collaborated with golf architect Tom Fazio to design a course on the site of East Potomac Golf Links. [1]

According to UPI, the planned renovations are scheduled to begin on November 15, 2026, and will take 15 months to complete. Trump stated that the redesigned location will remain open to the public while being capable of hosting high-level golf events. [1]

The redevelopment follows recent legal action at the location. As FTMQ News reported earlier, a federal judge ordered the National Park Service to temporarily halt tree removal at East Potomac Golf Links after approximately 500 trees were cut down. The court case stems from a dispute between the Trump administration and historic preservationists over the site, which originally opened in 1921. [3]
