Trump says he’s building a White House helipad for a new, more powerful Marine One

President Donald Trump announced the construction of a granite helipad on the White House South Lawn to accommodate new, more powerful Marine One helicopters. The project, privately funded by Sikorsky Aircraft (a Lockheed Martin subsidiary), is estimated to cost up to $6 million and aims to address issues caused by the helicopters' exhaust damaging the lawn.
