Seen through algae-laden green water, a tear in the recently applied sealant can be seen on the bottom of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on June 18, 2026, in Washington, D.C. The National Park Service is working to control and remove an algae bloom that has turned the pool green following the Trump Administration's recent $14 million repair, resealing and painting project.
