Description:

Since its construction in 1888, the enormous Old Executive Building has provided office space to a long list of famous historical figures, including William Howard Taft, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Gerald Ford. The granite structure lies in the heart of Washington, D.C., next door to the White House. Visitors can take pre-arranged tours of the building, passing along two miles of corridors, and seeing some of the 550 rooms and elegantly restored conference areas.
