Whitehouse ,Washington D.C - America ,1793-1962
The President's house was a major feature of Pierre Charles L'Enfant's plan for the newly established federal city, Washington, D.C.[2] The architect of the White House was chosen in a competition, which received nine proposals, including one submitted anonymously by Thomas Jefferson.[3] The nation's first president, George Washington, traveled to the site of the federal city on July 16, 1792, to make his judgment. His review is recorded as being brief and he quickly selected the submission of James Hoban, an Irishman living in Charleston, South Carolina.[4] Washington was not entirely pleased with the original Hoban submission, however; he found it too small, lacking ornament, and not fitting the nation's president. On Washington's recommendation the house was enlarged by thirty percent; a large reception hall, the present East Room, was added. This was likely inspired by the large reception room at Mount Vernon. |
