The (whatever it is) doesn’t work right, the work was done shabbily or construction was begun during the presidential administration of Donald Trump, so it had to be poor quality.
Mark our words.
After all, the same thing happened when what is now the Joel W. Solomon Federal Building and United States Courthouse was preparing to be dedicated in 1933.
Oh, to be sure, many praises were heaped upon the R.H. Hunt-designed building on Georgia Avenue.
