If you want to provide some on-the-record feedback to the National Park Service about the ghastly Arc d' Trump, here's the place: https://parkplanning.nps.gov/document.cfm?documentID=151576

Or you can email directly to ncr_planning@nps.gov

Will it matter? Likely not. Is it worth offering your voice: I think so.

Good Lord. It really seems to be the case that with enough power and little enough shame, you can do *anything* to stroke your ego.
