The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) has placed the “East Wing Modernization Project” (which we understand includes the White House ballroom project) on the tentative agenda for an information presentation at its January 8, 2026, public meeting.

This will be an informational briefing only; no Commission action is requested or will be taken on the project at this time.

NCPC review is an important step in the federal planning process for new construction at the White House, including future opportunities for public input as the project advances. We will share additional details about how to observe the January 8 meeting online and in-person closer to the date.
