The White House live cam, located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Washington, D.C., the official residence and workplace of the President of the United States, serving this role since the presidency of John Adams.
Constructions started in 1792 and completed in 1800, the neoclassical architectural marvel was designed by James Hoban, an Irish-born architect, and has undergone several renovations over time. Made of white-painted Aquia sandstone, the iconic structure comprises the Executive Residence, the West Wing (housing the Oval Office and presidential offices), the East Wing (reserved for official functions and events), and the White House Visitor Center.
Beyond its physical significance, the White House functions as the hub for presidential activities, from conducting official business and hosting foreign dignitaries to addressing the nation on critical matters. The expansive 18-acre complex includes meticulously landscaped grounds and is open to public tours, which must be requested through a Member of Congress due to security protocols.
As a symbol of American democracy, the White House has witnessed historic events, including presidential inaugurations, state dinners, and international summits, making it a central focal point for both national and global attention.
