'Refined' Eisenhower Memorial design to be unveiled

Revisions to a hotly contested design for the President Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial are to be revealed Tuesday, but the design’s staunchest opponents — the Eisenhower family — don’t have high hopes that their calls for an overhaul have been heeded.

After months of delay, the Eisenhower Memorial Commission is hoping to move forward with an official approval of the design by famed architect Frank Gehry. If the commission votes for approval, the design would then go before the National Capital Planning Commission.
