Former President Donald Trump's foundation has unveiled plans for a massive 80-story presidential library tower in downtown Miami. The renderings show a skyscraper with a prominent TRUMP logo emblazoned on the exterior, along with other luxury amenities like a golf course, hotel, and museum.

Why it matters

The proposed presidential library is the latest in a series of Trump-branded real estate projects, raising questions about the appropriate use of a former president's legacy and whether such a large-scale commercial development is suitable for a civic institution meant to preserve presidential history.

The details

The renderings show an 80-story tower with the TRUMP name in large capital letters on the exterior. The plans also include a golf course, hotel, and museum as part of the presidential library complex. Trump's foundation says the project will cost an estimated $3 billion to build.

  • The renderings were released by the Trump Foundation on March 31, 2026.

What they’re saying

“This will be the most incredible presidential library ever built, maybe the biggest building in Florida. It's going to be tremendous, just tremendous.”

— Donald Trump, Former President

What’s next

The Trump Foundation plans to submit formal plans to the city of Miami for approval in the coming months. If approved, construction on the presidential library tower is expected to begin in 2027.

The takeaway

The proposed Trump presidential library in Miami represents the former president's continued efforts to cement his legacy through large-scale real estate projects bearing his name. However, the scale and commercial nature of the plans raise concerns about the appropriate use of a presidential library to promote a single individual's brand.
