Trump shares renderings of his presidential library in Miami
President Donald Trump unveiled plans for his presidential library in Miami on Monday.
Trump posted a video on Truth Social that shows a large glass building with a large needle on top. The building has his last name in gold letters on its facade, an American flag hanging in the middle, and a presidential plane on display on the first floor. (A Boeing 747 gifted to Trump by the Qatari government is expected to be on display in his presidential library once he leaves office.)
The size of the proposed building dwarfs the nearby Freedom Tower, a downtown Miami landmark that holds particular significance for Cuban immigrants in Florida — a key demographic that helped Trump win the historically blue Miami-Dade County in 2024.
The video also shows replicas of the Trump-era White House, including the Oval Office, the West Colonnade featuring his so-called presidential glory run and his expected ballroom.
The presidential library will be designed by Miami-based architecture and engineering firm Bermello Ajamil.
The library site – a prime piece of Miami real estate bordering the city’s waterfront – is a nearly 3-acre property valued at more than $67 million. The parcel became the source of a legal battle last fall after a federal judge halted the transfer of the land from a local college to the state. The judge ultimately dismissed the case in December and allowed the transfer to continue.
The proposed site is not far from Trump National Doral, a resort owned by Trump’s family business.
In his Truth Social post sharing the video, Trump also included a link for people to donate to the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library Foundation Inc.
