Report: New Trump Arch Could Harm Other DC Monuments

The National Park Service is a US government group. It takes care of parks and monuments. It also takes care of monuments in Washington DC, the US capital.

President Trump wants to build a big new arch. An arch is a curved structure, like a doorway. This arch would be a memorial. A memorial is something built to remember an important event or person.

A new report talks about this arch. A report is a document with information about something. The report has 133 pages. It came out on Friday.

The report says the arch could have adverse effects on other monuments nearby. Adverse effects means bad results. The report says many other sites in DC could be affected.

These other sites have historical significance. This means they are important because of history. The report says the new arch might hurt this importance.

Even so, the National Park Service still supports the arch project. Supports means agrees with and helps something happen.

Many people are now talking about the report. Some people worry about the other monuments. Other people support Trump's plan for the new arch.
