最新报道:The Federal Reserve is undergoing a $400 million renovation of its Washington headquarters, a project that faced scrutiny during the Trump administration. Officials confirmed the upgrades are necessary due to aging infrastructure, including outdated plumbing and electrical systems. The renovation, approved in 2015, aims to modernize the 1930s-era building while preserving its historic features. Former President Trump had questioned the cost, suggesting funds could be better spent elsewhere. Fed Chair Jerome Powell emphasized the importance of maintaining a functional workspace for policymakers overseeing the U.S. economy. The project is expected to be completed by 2027 without disrupting the central bank's operations.
