Length of time that former President Donald Trump's 2020 executive order requiring government planners to “beautify public spaces and inspire civic pride” in the United States by re-embracing classical architecture was in effect: 2 months
Our previous coverage on Trump's executive order:
- “Trump Signs Executive Order Promoting ‘Beautiful’ Architecture,” December 22, 2020
- “Biden Revokes Trump's ‘Beautiful Architecture’ Executive Order,” February 25, 2021
- “The Style Wars Resume,” June 14, 2023 (on two bills introduced by Republican politicians to effectively resurrect Trump's executive order)
