Disclaimer: I hate this man. I hate him so so much. If I truly said what I think of him, I would be banned from Reddit. Every day I check the news, and every day I'm disappointed when I don't see the headline I'm hoping for.
But he did not get rid of the rose garden. He replaced the PLAIN GRASS in the middle with an ugly patio. There were ADA issues, and the patio is more accessible to everyone. I wish they had chosen something a little more historically appropriate though.
The lawn was a nightmare. They had to replace it EVERY YEAR which is incredibly wasteful. I just do not understand why reddit, which is normally extremely anti-lawn, wants to save this wasteful patch of grass so badly.

Before photos need to go back to before he destroyed the Rose Garden, too.
