AIA Condemns Demolition of the White House East Wing and Calls for Transparency in Public Architecture

AIA Condemns Demolition of the White House East Wing

The American Institute of Architects (AIA) expresses deep concern over the full demolition of the White House East Wing, which contradicts earlier public assurances.

The project “will be near it, but not touching it and it will pay total respect to the existing building.”

The demolition without full public engagement or clarity undermines the process developed to protect civic architecture.

The AIA calls for transparency in public architecture, questioning the integrity, process, and public stewardship of the civic built environment.
