A foundation overseeing the construction of President Donald Trump’s presidential library has revealed the first renderings of the precedent-shattering project — a towering skyscraper in downtown Miami.

Eric Trump, the president’s son and a trustee of the Trump Library Foundation, shared plans for the presidential library in a social media post on Monday. The post included a video of renderings of the building, slated to be built on property transferred from Miami Dade College.

“This landmark on the water in Miami, Florida will stand as a lasting testament to an amazing man, an amazing developer, and the greatest President our Nation has ever known,” Trump said.

The renderings depict a skyscraper that would loom over Biscayne Bay, emblazoned with Trump’s name in large block letters in a similar style to construction projects his company helped develop prior to his entrance into politics.

It would also loom over the adjacent Freedom Tower, a Miami landmark where Cubans fleeing the communist revolution were processed for U.S. residency.

The mock-up suggests the library will feature multiple design details that evoke Trump’s redesign of the White House. One image features a hallway with plaques of past presidents, similar to the “walk of fame” Trump installed at the West Colonnade of the White House. Another rendering shows a large ballroom inside the library with a design closely resembling plans for the new ballroom Trump is constructing at the White House.

Another image suggests the library will include a replica of the Oval Office, featuring the president’s preferred gold trimming, gold drapes and ornate design details.

A large atrium depicted in the renderings features multiple U.S. military aircraft, including the luxury 747 Boeing aircraft given to Trump by Qatar. At the time the Qatari’s gift was announced last year, the White House said it would donate the aircraft to Trump’s library to take ownership of it after leaving office.

The images mark the first indication of Trump’s plans for the 2.63 acre plot of land granted to him in an under-the-radar deal by Miami Dade College and Gov. Ron DeSantis last year. The plot previously served as a parking lot for college employees.

The foundation is aiming to bring in nearly a billion dollars in fundraising, according to tax records obtained by The Miami Herald. Part of that sum comes from settlements in lawsuits filed against media companies.
