JOB DESCRIPTION NOT INCLUDED The framers of the Constitution were fed up with kings They didn't want to create a new government with too much power but they also knew a stronger government could help get things done The question was how to check and balance that power History didn't help There was a lack of examples of effective republics from around the world to help them decide how much and what kind of power the leader of their new country should have Since there was no precedent to follow the first president George Washington realized that all of his decisions would define what it means to be the president Ever since different presidents have shaped the presidency in their own way so it can be said that the job description is still evolving even today BY THE NUMBERS Did you know the White House has a dentist a florist shop and a chocolate shop While the most famous house in the country is constantly updating with each new president here are some fast facts ADDRESS 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE SIZE 55 000 SQUARE FEET 5 110 SQ M GALLONS OF PAINT TO KEEP IT WHITE FLOORS WINDOWS ROOMS FIREPLACES STAIRCASES ELEVATORS HIDDEN MEZZANINE LEVELS BOMB SHELTERS SECRET TUNNELS
RENOVATION NATION GEORGE WASHINGTON IS THE ONLY PRESIDENT NOT TO LIVE IN THE WHITE HOUSE The White House is pretty iconic but it does get updates every now and then Incoming presidents even get to pick out personal touches for the Oval Office including rugs paint color cur tains statues and pictures The only thing about the Oval Office that doesn't change is the shape Here's a history of some of the more necessary updates to the White House 1801 Indoor bathroom JEFFERSON 1831 Running water JACKSON 1837 Central heat VAN BUREN 1848 Gas lighting POLK 1879 Telephone HAYES 1882 Elevators ARTHUR 1891 Electric lights HARRISON 1922 Radio HARDING 1933 Heated swimming pool FDR 1978 Computers CARTER RESIDENCE PESTILENCE Despite what you've been told Washington D C was not built on a swamp It was built on watery tidal lands by the Potomac River The land was a mixture of forests and water ways All that standing water made a perfect breeding ground for mosquitoes Those bloodsucking nuisances not only itched they carried death and disease One doctor even tried to get the capital to put a huge mos quito net around the whole city He failed Now levees help hold back the floodwaters but even today a good rain will flood the side walks by the Jefferson Memorial
