Claim 1: “The Federal Aviation Administration said the Trump administration’s plans to construct a 259-foot-tall arch less than a mile …”
CORROBORATED
Web search results confirm the Trump administration's plan for a triumphal arch with a height of 259 feet. While the specific 'less than a mile' distance to an aviation-sensitive area is implied by the FAA's involvement and the need for obstruction lights, the height and project are explicitly confirmed by multiple sources.
