The Trump administration is seeking to install a permanent fence around Lafayette Square in Washington – the public park located in front of the White House, where tourists and protesters often gather. According to the proposal, officials said they are trying to balance American public access to the famous complex with the need to protect the president. According to the plan, developed jointly by the Secret Service, the White House and the Department of the Interior, the fences will be approximately 8 to 9 feet high and will replace the current system, which consists of temporary fences and bollards.
