Joe Biden has revoked the executive order signed by Donald Trump days before he left office which insisted new federal buildings should be classical in style.
The new president issued his own executive order at the end of last month undoing a number of his predecessor’s actions including scrapping his December instruction titled Promoting Beautiful Federal Civic Architecture.
Trump’s order – dubbed “Make America Classical Again” by commentators – not only ruled that civic architecture should be classical or traditional but also laid the ground for the creation of a president’s council whose 50-plus members were to write his preferences into the policies of the body that commissions federal buildings. ....

On Monday, President Trump, thinking of his legacy perhaps, issued an executive order with the title “On Promoting Beautiful Federal Civic Architecture”.
One wonders, looking at Trump Tower, a vast Darth Vader helmet on Fifth Avenue, what the aesthetic the Commander in Chief has in mind? Glass? Steel? Light-stealing skyscrapers and bully-boy lobbies?
