Mar-A-Lago

Mar-A-Lago is a historic estate located in Palm Beach, Florida, designed by the architect Marion Sims Wyeth and completed in 1927 for socialite and cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post. The name “Mar-A-Lago” translates to “Sea to Lake” in Spanish, referring to its location between the Atlantic Ocean and Lake Worth. The property features a Mediterranean Revival architectural style and includes lush gardens, pools, and a private beach.

In addition to its original use as a private residence, Mar-A-Lago has gained significant attention as a club and resort since it was purchased by Donald Trump in 1985. It has been the site of numerous high-profile events and gatherings. Since Trump’s presidency, Mar-A-Lago has become a symbol of political and social stature, serving as a venue for meetings and events tied to his administration. The estate’s name is often associated with luxury, exclusivity, and a point of political interest in discussions regarding influence and networks in American politics.
