Hope this helps\n\nWhat year was the White House built? \n\n\nA search on "white house built" led us down the right road. A page from the Encyclopedia Americana online offered detailed information about the mansion that has housed every U.S. president since John Adams (the second U.S. president). \nAlthough he never lived there, George Washington chose the location for White House while he was in office. In 1792, Congress selected a plan submitted by architect James Hoban for a Palladian-style building. The Irish-born Hoban modeled the structure after the Leister House in Dublin. The cornerstone was laid October 13, 1792. John Adams and his wife Abigail moved into the unfinished house in 1800. Construction was ongoing until 1809, when Thomas Jefferson was the occupant. \n\nOver the years, the structure has been renovated, redesigned, and expanded a number of times, although the facade appears largely the same today as it did when it was built. After the British torched the White House during the War of 1812, it was rebuilt and enlarged. In 1901, Teddy Roosevelt arrived with his brood of six, necessitating additional room. Offices on the second floor were turned into living space, and the West Wing, which houses the presidential office and the Cabinet Room, was added. Construction on the addition was completed in 1902. The East Wing, which houses yet more offices, was built in 1942. \n\nUnfortunately, tours of the impressive and symbolic building have been cancelled until further notice due to security concerns. But you can still explore the White House online by taking a virtual tour, such as the famous one Jackie Kennedy gave to a television crew in 1962 or the current official historical tour.

The White House was built during John Adams presidency.  He lived in it for a really brief period of time, but then Jefferson moved in.  It was burned during the War of 1812 during James Madison's presidency.  The British sacked Washington and burned it.  Dolly Madison saved the painting of George Washington.  I have no clue about the first picture.

White House \nThe White House is the official residence of the President of the United States and his family. It is located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., a site chosen by the first US president, George Washington, along with the city planner of Washington, Pierre L'Enfant. The building was designed by Irish-born architect James Hoban. President Washington never actually lived in the White House although he did oversee its construction. The first president to reside in the White House was John Adams, who moved into the residence in 1800, along with his wife, Abigail. \n\nThe White House has survived two fires -- one at the hands of the British in 1814, during the War of 1812, and the second in the West Wing in 1929.\n\nThomas Jefferson held the first Inaugural open house in 1805. He also opened the house for public tours, and it has remained open, except during wartime, ever since. In addition, he welcomed visitors to annual receptions on New Year's Day and on the Fourth of July, a tradition that lasted until the 1930's.\n\nThe White House has 132 rooms and 35 bathrooms on six floors. There are also 412 doors, 147 windows, 28 fireplaces, 8 staircases, and 3 elevators. Originally known as the "President's Palace," the "President's House," and the "Executive Mansion," President Theodore Roosevelt officially gave the White House its current name in 1901.\n\n\nThe administration of the government is housed in the West Wing. Built by Theodore Roosevelt as a temporary office building in 1902, it is where the president and his staff conduct their daily business. In 1909, President William Taft reconstructed the president's office, and changed its shape to oval. The Oval Office was established in the center of the West Wing. President Franklin Roosevelt expanded the West Wing and relocated the Oval Office to the southeast corner in 1934.
