For more than 200 years, the White House has been more than just the home of the Presidents and their families. Throughout the world, it is recognized as the symbol of the President, of the President's administration, and of the United States.

The cornerstone was laid in 1792 and a competition design submitted by Irish-born architect James Hoban was chosen.
